Snowflake Bentley, by Jacqueline Briggs Martin and Mary Azarian, is a Caldecott Award winning picture book that tells the story of Wilson Bentley. Wilson was a child fascinated by snow who grew up to study the little miracles we call snowflakes. It is his research that gives us what we know about snowflakes today. After reading this picture book together, try this art project with your kids:
Cut a flurry of paper snowflakes. Fold, fold, fold, and cut. Unfold your papers and witness the magic and wonder-making snowflakes never fails to delight kids of all ages!
