Bookroo's summary
A child faces the ultimate winter challenge: escaping the confines of endless layers of clothing. Each piece is a new obstacle, from bunchy jackets to stiff pants. Will they find freedom from the bundled chaos? With clever rhymes and engaging illustrations, this story invites young readers to join the fun and discover the joy of shedding winter's weight.
From the publisher
Rhyme follows rhyme as layer after layer of winter clothing (“bunchy and hot, wrinkled a lot, stiff in the knee, and too big for me!”) is first put on and then taken off to the relief of the child bundled inside. Clever rebuses and jaunty illustrations make The Jacket I Wear in the Snow especially fun for prereaders and new readers.
