“The old man smiled and realized he‘d been given a special gift. And for the first time in a long while, he looked forward to tomorrow.”

In a Christmas blizzard in the countryside, a farmer finds a horse that was separated from the herd. He brings her to the barn and stays with her. When the foal is born, it‘s clear why this is such a special gift ✨

On a small, forlorn farm the holiday season is best forgotten, along with painful memories of loved ones lost. Mother Nature has other plans, however, and a chance snowstorm brings together two unlikely hearts, one human and one beast, yet both yearning for comfort, companionship, and that most elusive #gift of all, hope. #sleightheshelves @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

Winters Gift is a RF picture book that won the Writers Notes Book Award in 2006. This book would be great to use as a SR. This book lends itself to making predictions, discussing theme, and looking at other essential parts of a story. ESOL Strategy 12 is about using preview and review activities. You could easily use the cover and blurbs about the book as a preview, and then use the actual events of the story as review for the objective you teach
The star is the most important part of the tree, she would always say. It's a symbol of hope, and no matter how bad things get, you should always have hope.
#chillyreads #photoadaynov16 @RealLifeReading lovely children's book about loss, grief, unlikely companions finding & saving each other, & above all, hope. My son read this book often when his Nana passed away when he was about 5.
