a classic not well known childrens book, must read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
How many children would have never known what a puffin was, if not for this book? The simple but lovely illustrations are captivating as we look through all that white snow for that little black spot. A favorite of mine as a child, when I worked in a daycare a few years back I went looking for this book to read to the children and found it at the library. They were actually a little young for the book (3 & 4 mostly) but I can guarantee those are now children who know what puffins are, and to always look for spots in the snow.
What spot

My favorite book from childhood. I have enjoyed it again as an adult reading it to my children. the story is beautifully self contained, the simple repetitive text is positively lyrical and despite the simplicity the story is full of charm and character. Perfect
great kid's book, shouldn't have taken out of print

I read this book to my kids in the 1980s and both loved it. It's nice to change some of the words to keep them interested. We made it into a funny story. Can you guess what we said the spot in the snow was?! I'm now trying to find my copy of the book from the attic, but am glad there are still a few out there in case I can't find mine. I can't wait to read to my grandson who is now 2. Book about 2 animals, a bear, and another one (don't remember what kind), who see a spot in the snow and try to guess what it might be. It ends up being a wagon.
Still remembered after all these years...

This was my favorite childhood book, too. Even decades later I still remember the walrus, the puffin, the cart... Children will love this book. The drawings are eye-catching, and there's a subtle message that children will take with them when they close the book. Highly recommended.
This was my favorite book when I was a little girl

This book was my favorite book when I was a little girl. It taught me to belive in myself even when others were doubtful and to always belive in others.
