520 "Breathtaking photography and fascinating facts about snow
crystals "will instill appreciation for these tiny, cool
objects" in both children and adults ( The Washington Post
). How do snow crystals form? What shapes can they take?
Is it true that there are no two snow crystals alike?
These questions and more are answered in this visually
stunning exploration of the science of snow. Perfect for
reading on winter days, the book features photos of real
snow crystals in all their beautiful diversity. Snowflake-
catching instructions are also included! "Settle down in a
comfy chair.... By the end, you'll be hoping there's a day
when you can follow the careful directions for catching
and viewing snow crystals." -- Chicago Tribune "The clear
and direct narrative takes readers into the clouds to
explain snow-crystal formation... and then zooms in on the
actual crystals. Sure to get young scientists outside in
the cold." -- Kirkus Reviews "Nature photographer
Cassino's gallery of snow crystals is [a] riveting
exhibition." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's
Books (starred review)"--|cProvided by Freading.
