 The Snowy Day
comment
A children's picture book written and illustrated by Ezra Jack Keats, first published in 1962.A young boy named Peter wakes up to find his New York City neighborhood covered in snow, and spends the day frolicking and playing before returning home, excited for another snowy day tomorrow.Winner of the 1963 Caldecott Medal, The Snowy Day is considered a children's classic, both for its simple yet beautiful illustrations and for being the first picture book with an African-American protagonist. Amazon has since adapted it into a 2016 animated special.

Adaptation Expansion: Amazon’s Animated Adaptation adds a subplot of Peter going to his Nana's house to prepare for a family party, and greatly expands the cast.

Minimalism: The original book. The art style is simple collage cutouts, while the text aims for short, declarative sentences.

Five-Token Band: Exaggerated in the animated adaptation — Peter's neighborhood includes white, black, Jewish, Latino, Asian and Middle-Eastern residents. Of course, this is Truth in Television for a lot of major cities, and true to the spirit of the original book.
