This book's illustrations were absolutely beautiful. They were very plain with a lot of white but I thought it was brilliant. It was about snow so that makes sense why there was so much white, but the illustrators use of color was intriguing. First of all he did use a lot of white, but the boy character (Peter I think) was black and he wore a bright red coat the whole time he was outside. This contrast was very cool looking and something that I have not seen a lot. I liked how Peter was able to experience different things about snow that are different from other objects. One of my favorite parts was when he put the snowball in his pocket to keep but later that night it was gone. It didn't say much about that it just mentioned it which I thought was interesting. However, then he knew that the warmth might melt the snow man he made, so I'm not sure why he knew one but not the other. Over all though, I really did enjoy this book.
