The book "Snow Song" by A.K. Riley is a book all about the new snow falling and how it changes the world the children characters live in. The illustrations are beautiful and were the best part of the book! My five year old kids did note that the story was too repetitive, and said the word "Snow" over and over. They did not particularly enjoy the book, nor did I. I think it was a cute idea but not well executed.

Hmmm… A dreamy paean to snow – playing in it, walking through, letting it swirl around us – and, er, that's it. Pleasant, sure, but not something that grabbed me.

If you want to read book that give you a fuzzy feeling or a book that would help your kids to play out in the snow, this book is for you. The illustration it is soooo pretty. It is so cozy to be read a loud with the young ones during winter time, when it is snowing outside :D
When it comes to a story, I'd say there is no story line. It is filled with some short sentences and the word "snow". It is one of those books that is really focus on one thing.
But this book really brings my inner child out. If there is a snow right now, I'd jump out and play honestly.

A beautifully illustrated celebration of the magic of snow.

I particularly appreciated the use of free verse in this story - something more uncommon in picture books for this age range. The illustrations also add to the overall story, bringing more life and variation to the rather repetitive text.

All in all, a charming story with a strong winter atmosphere.
