Quality story. Beautiful photography. Great gift book!
I have bought several of these as gifts for Christmas. A story you'll bring out every winter season. This one is a keeper.
Getting Closer to Wildlife!
What a charming book about people caring for wildlife and the forest. The photography is gorgeous and the story is beautiful yet simple. Two children have learned to take care of the wildlife in forest in the winter by building a snowman using vegetables and seeds. The animals visit the snowman and eat their fill and the children refuel the snowman with more items. The authors also explain how they have interacted with wildlife for years and the animals often walk or fly right up to them. A very nice inspiring idea.
A MUST FOR EVERY GRANDCHILD AND THEIR PARENTS
MY HUSBAND READS A BOOK EVERY CHRISTMAS EVE TO OUR 8 AND THEIR CHILDREN. WE MAIL THEM TO THOSE WHO DON'T LIVE NEAR US SO THE DADDY CAN READ THEM. WE ALWAYS GIVE SOMETHING FOR THE MANGER FOR EACH..AND GAVE 39 TINY SNOWMEN TO EACH, FOR THEM TO PUT IN THEIR MANGER SCENE.. IT WAS WONDERFUL AS THEY SO LOVED THE STORY..
WE HAVE ALWAYS GIVEN ITEMS WITH THE STORY... AND THIS TIME HE THOUGHT OF THIS AND I WAS OVERJOYED...
HE MADE A TALL SNOWMAN OF PLYWOOD FOR "STRANGERS IN THE WOODS"FOR EACH OF OUR CHILDREN(8)
I GLUED HALF WALNUTS FOR THE MOUTH MOUTH ,AND MY GENE SHAPED WOOD LIKE A CARROT AND PAINTED THEM ORANGE.. HE SCREWED THEM ON.. WE PUT THE RED HAT ON AND I MADE A FELT RED SCARF FOR EACH..
I ONLY WISH YOU COULD HAVE SEEN THE ADULTS FACES ,AS WELL AS THE CHILDREN, AS MY GENE PULLED BACK THE DRAPES TO OUR PATIO..
THIS YEAR HE IS MAKING ONE FOR A LITTLE NEIGHBOR GIRL WHO LIVES BEHIND US, AS SHE LOVES OURS, AND THE STORY.
WE GAVE HER THE BOOK AND STUFFED SNOWMAN TOY LAST YEAR.
NEEDLESS TO SAY A SNOWMAN IS RARE IN FLORIDA!!! :)
In His Quiet Joy, nana IT IS A WONDERFUL BOOK AND SO ARE THE PICTURES
