Description - Katy and the Big Snow Book and CD by Virginia Lee Burton

KEYNOTE: Virginia Lee Burton's enduring winter favourite Katy the snowplow loves to work, but Geoppolis's mild winters don't give this plucky little plough much opportunity to shine. Then a blizzard blankets the city and it is Katy to the rescue as she digs out the city and helps everyone in need. A classic tale about Katy's determination and her 'chug, chug, chug' endurance, this book will be enjoyed by children and parents alike. AUTHOR Virginia Lee Burton (1909-1968) was the talented author and illustrator of some of the most enduring books ever written for children. The winner of the 1942 Caldecott Medal for THE LITTLE HOUSE, Burton's books include heroes and happy endings, lively illustrations, and a dash of nostalgia. She lived with her two sons, Aristides and Michael, and her husband George Demetrios, the sculptor, in a section of Gloucester, Massachusetts, called Folly Cove. Here she taught a class in design and from it emerged the Folly Cove designers, a group of internationally known professional artisans. She is the author of many classic children's picture books, including MIKE MULLIGAN AND HIS STEAM SHOVEL and KATY AND THE BIG SNOW. AGES 0-3
