The Twelve Days of Winter

Written by Deborah Lee Rose and Illustrated by Carey Armstrong-Ellis

It's wintertime! That means it's the season for mittens, snow, and twelve days of surprises. In this high-energy, school-loving class, the teacher introduces a new winter activity every day. Three penguins...Antarctic fun! Four weather words...brrrr! And twelve treats for tasting...YUM!

As the teacher's gifts add up (teddy bears, paper snowflakes, sugar cubes), and the days get colder, the classroom is transformed into wintery chaos. Are all the winter surprises still inside? Count along with the class to find out.
