It's now December 4, and around the time that Minnesotans start wanting snow. All of those snowpeople, snow forts, and snow angels to be made! Not to mention all that snow shoeing, skiing and snowboarding -- Minnesotans know how to make the most out of winter!

Here's a list of cold-day books to get you in a good mood for the winter:

Snow Dance by Lezlie Evans
Snowflake Bentley by Jacqueline Briggs Martin
The Mitten: A Ukrainian Folk Tale by Jan Brett
The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats

These are some of our favorites. Does your family have others that we missed?
