Grandmother Winter

Grandmother Winter lives all alone
with her snow-white flock of geese.

All spring
Grandmother herds her geese
as they gabble and squawk…

All through the spring, summer, and fall, Grandmother Winter tends her geese and gathers their feathers. Why? To bring snowfall, of course, snowfall as soft as feathers and bright as a winter moon.

With a poetic text and distinctive scratchboard illustrations, Grandmother Winter reveals that there is indeed magic in our coldest season. To the woodland and all of its creatures, the arrival of winter is, quite simply, a gift.
