Bookroo's summary

Peep, a curious young owl, eagerly anticipates her first snowfall, bombarding her brother Hoot with questions about its song. Impatient and imaginative, she flutters through the Paris skies, crafting her own melody. But as the first snowflakes descend, Peep learns the true magic of waiting and the warmth of family. Will the snow's song be as enchanting as she imagines? Discover the wonder of a first snow day in this charming tale of patience and discovery.

From the publisher

A young owl experiences the magic of a first snowfall—the quiet wintery wonder, the pristine beauty, and snowballs!—in this follow-up to the adorable Hoot and Peep

It’s Peep’s first winter, and it’s going to snow very, very soon. Peep has so many questions for her older brother Hoot: Does snow drop, polppety splop, like the rain’s song? Does it scrinkle scrattle like falling leaves? But Hoot can’t remember snow very well. The one thing he knows for sure is that it is worth waiting for.

But Peep doesn’t have his patience, and as she flies around the gorgeous Paris skies, she tries her best to make up her own snow song. But once those first snowflakes start to fall, Peep realizes just how wise her older brother really is for waiting…and just who she wants to cuddle up to when the snow starts to really sing.

With all the wonder and the joy of a first snow day, and perfect for fans of The Quiet Book and Little Owl’s Night, this tender follow-up to Hoot and Peep is certainly worth waiting for, too.
