A Children's Book: The Snow BirthdayThe Snow Birthday is a children's book that combines the magic of winter snow with the drama of a birthday party. It is a kid's story about birthdays, about friends, and about family. Our favorite girl finds herself wishing for snow as it gets closer to her birthday and the Christmas Holidays. When the snow finally appears, she works with her family to put together the perfect "snow birthday party." Tag along as the invitations go out, and the party guests enjoy activities and surprises that will delight children of all ages. Read with us as guests and family enjoy winter sports and indoor games.A Children's Picture Book About FriendshipThe Snow Birthday is written for early readers age 4-8, but it is more than just a picture book, it is an adventure that they will enjoy reading over and over again. It has just the right mix of pictures and text to help children step into reading. Fun winter activities make up The Snow Birthday celebration. The fun and festivities involve the whole family and end with some surprise special guests.A Children's Book About FamilyThis children's book was created as a family project, it portrays good family values and good wholesome activities. When our children were young, we enjoyed our time reading children's stories together with them. Works by Dr. Seuss, Maurice Sendak, and Beatix Potter made frequent visits from the library to our home. Over time, we came to realize that we were indeed "book people", and wanted to share the joy of reading and of children's stories in particular with others. We hope you enjoy our book, toddlers, children, and the child in each of us.About the Author: Brenda Giles has a degree in Early Child Development.
