The Jacket I Wear in the Snow - Shirley Neitzel

Nothing is more frustrating for children than putting on--and taking off--layer after layer of winter clothing. Nothing is more fun for preschoolers and those just learning to read than enjoying that dreaded experience through a spirited, cumulative rhyme, embellished and extended with rebuses. Full color. 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.
