Nothing is as fun as snow, except maybe all the craziness happening right outside this little boy's window! Will he even notice?

Nothing is as fun as snow! When the forecast calls for snow, one little boy is thrilled at the prospect of snowmen, snow angels, and sledding down snowy slopes. While wishing, waiting, and watching, the boy keeps peeking outside to see if it's snowing - but he only looks up! His single-minded focus on the sky makes him completely miss the increasingly comical chaos occurring outside his door, which includes a monster truck, a firetruck, escaped monkeys, and carousing clowns. The boy bides his time and tries to wait patiently, but waiting is boring! As the hours go by and not a snowflake is seen, the boy begins to worry that it might NEVER snow again! Will his future contain only mud-men, leaf angels, and sledding on grass? That's no fun! If only he would notice all of the wacky events unfolding outside! Finally, when the boy is just about to give up, the long-awaited white stuff arrives with a single jubilant word - SNOW! All of his frustration instantly disappears, and the boy rushes outside declaring, "I knew it would snow! I knew it!" Still oblivious to the pandemonium around him, he concludes, "Nothing's as fun as snow!" Bursting with vibrancy and hilarious details, Just SNOW Already! captures children's love of snow - as well as the frustrating side of waiting - while offering a humorous lesson about living in the moment and noticing what's around you. Kids will love poring over the hilarious outdoor scenes while keeping their eyes peeled for the first flake of snow. They can follow the costumed birthday party attendees, delivery men trying to get a large couch through a small doorway, the chain of events caused by a dog chasing a cat, a bird battle, the ups and downs of the house painter, the postal worker's mail mishap, the monkeys' and clowns' escapades, the firefighters' rescue, the games played by his sister and her friend, all of the neighbors' activities in their homes, and much much more.
