Lovely, lyrical prose

Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2019

Verified Purchase

While this is not a rhymer, the author has chosen language mezmerizing, poetic, and beautifully descriptive of life under snowy woods. She reveals a whole world of unseen creatures burrowed under winter white, as discovered by little girl--and all in hushed prose that will please small listeners if read deliberately. The artwork is perfect, polishing the text into a winter gem.

Great book to gift during winter time + Another favorite from the series

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2020

Verified Purchase

I gifted this book to my 5 year old nephew. I love the story, how it’s a dad and daughter cross country skiing, and they share glimpses of animal life under the snow. Here’s a excerpt from the book to get a sense of the text: “Over the snow I glide. Into woods, frosted fresh and white. Over the snow, a flash of fur – a red squirrel disappears down a crack. “Where did he go?” “Under the Snow,” Dad says.“

This book is part of a series. Another favorite of mine is ‘Over and Under the the Pond’ - here’s a link to it on Amazon: https://amzn.to/31tpRpp

Informative, enlightened children’s series

Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2020

Verified Purchase

My kids and I enjoy the under and over series for the gentle verse. The ecological information is fantastic—we haven’t even exhausted the extra info in the back. I’ve never really thought about all the things under the snow, but am glad my kids will be challenged to consider holes and tracks in a whole new light. My five year old especially likes speculating about new snowy tracks in our yard now.

Wonderful book for all ages!

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2019

Verified Purchase

This book is excellent! The illustrations are lovely and the writing is absolutely beautiful. My kids (2 & 3yo) and I have read it over and over again since we received it. The story itself is very simple but the ideas have really intrigued my children. It arrived just after our first good snowfall, and my kids have been fascinated with the idea of animals living beneath the snow. Although my kids are still young, I can see older kids enjoying this, too - I’m an adult and I love reading it!

Finally - a winter animal book actually about WINTER!

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2017

Verified Purchase

I bought a couple books on animals in winter BUT those books ended up really being about animals in fall preparing for winter (which is NOT what I needed). I bought some books on animals living in the arctic or antarctic, but that is not really what I wanted for the winter season.

THEN I found "Over and Under the Snow." This book is actually about animal behavior in winter (not preparing for winter during autumn). The animals tunnel and eat under the snow, footprints reveal where animals wondered or slept above ground, predators pounce through the snow to catch prey, and others hibernate till spring. The back of the book has further details on the animals.

My only complaint is that the father and daughter have very different skin tones. It makes the father look ghostly and not alive in comparison to the daughter. This was not a big enough issue to lose the book a star.

If you love the outdoors

if you and your kids enjoy the outdoors, you will love this book. We first bought Up in the Garden, Down in the Dirt, and loved that one as well. Beautifully written.

A Great simple but educational surprise easy in story

Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2020

Verified Purchase

I have enjoyed this author’s simplicity of fun stories with natural educational experiences. This one follows suit. Grand children enjoy all of this series, ages 3-5. And Grandma has enjoyed and discovered a few things also. The pictures are cute. More of a 3rd grade reading skills for independent readers.

Not great

Disappointing. I had very good reviews of this book but the art work is not my cup of tea and the text is not great either. I returned it.
