Polar Animals by Deborah Hodge This is a fact book about animals who live in the extreme cold. Each page talks about a different animal in a couple, easy to understand sentences that are accompanied by cute pictures. Along the side are additional facts that you can choose to share or not depending on your child’s interest. This book had some favourite animals-snowy owls and penguins! The Magical Snow Garden by Tracey Corderoy A little penguin named Wellington, who lives in the snow, dreams of his own flower garden. His best friend, Rosemary, helps him create his own flowers out of bits of paper, springs, gears, and other things that can be repurposed. Together, they create a beautiful garden. Sadly, a snow storm destroys the beautiful flowers. Wellington’s friends won’t let him give up, and together they rebuild the garden better than ever. Preschoolers will adore the cute illustrations in this book. And everyone can benefit from the message, “We don’t know until we try.” Tacky the Penguin by Helen Lester Here’s a bird who grows well in the snow-meet Tacky, the funniest penguin! He can’t sing, dive, or march the way other penguins do; Tacky does everything his own way. At first this seems to be a bad thing, but when the hunters come looking for penguins, Tacky’s odd behaviour drives them away! It turns out that being yourself is pretty great. Here is Antarctica by Madeleine Dunphy This book shows us lots of animals that survive in the cold in Antarctica. The reader gets to learn about both water and land creatures. The animals who live on the land, live in snow year round. These include three types of penguins, leopard seals and the southern giant petrels (海燕). 1.
