Under the Snow by Melissa Stewart illustrated by Constance R. Bergum*

A family ventures into the snow covered world unaware of the creatures underneath them.  In simple text but well chosen words Ms. Stewart shares how various creatures survive the cold and snow.
This book inspired my then three year old and I to go look for centipedes in rotting logs in our woods last winter.
Ms. Stewart is one of my favorite nonfiction writers.
*Highly recommend.
Strategy: determining importance-main idea
