The Little General and the Giant Snowflake
It’s the Realist vs the Dreamers…at least in the Little General’s mind it is.
He’s only three feet tall but he commands his troops, demanding they constantly practice and do formations….
…“Formation #259!” he shouts… the little general squared his shoulders. 221, 300, 102, he barked…”
The troops are eager to please and quickly fall into formation, all but one - Lieutenant Lyle, whose happy-go-lucky attitude and constant repeating finally gets on the generals nerves.
However, when a giant snowflake suddenly appears floating above the little general’s flower garden, then again hovering over his head, will he see the err of his ways? Lieutenant Lyle’s whimsical-wisdom may be just what the general needs.
The Little General and the Giant Snowflake by Matthea Harvey is suitable for all ages. This charming illustrated allegory is sure to be a favourite amongst all the books this season.
