Really enjoyed this book. It is fun. The author has a wonderfully, delightful, sense of humor. Living in a northern state like we do, we love snow days! They make life fun. A time to totally put live on hold and just go play in the snow. A time to go sledding. A time to help neighbors shovel out. A time to reconnect with neighbors as we all shovel together. Our family loves snow days!
Snow Day is a book that capitalizes on the fact that snow days are so much fun for kids (because school gets put aside for one day - and it is a day of play). Yet, it is many times a day of headaches for adults. We think of still trying to get to work - navigating through the snow. All the work to shovel out passes through our minds. Snow brings more work and headaches for adults. Not a day of play. In Snow Day, Peter decides to set his normal day aside and enjoy a snow day. It becomes a day of reflection and a self evaluation for Peter. Through basic encounters with others he reflects and evaluates his life, values, focus, goals and ultimately his relationship with Christ. The author does this with such a great sense of humor. It is insightful and funny.
