This story telling about a pair of birds and their snowflake-filled journey through a winter landscape, where everything everywhere, from branches and leaves to forests full of trees, is unique. The birds look at things that are all very similar and almost alike, but still are different. The book text gives the messages that even if someone seems to be a part of a larger group they are still not all the same and should be seen as an individual. Two birds are flying through the forest and compares things to their surroundings. No two things are alike. This
story book tone is sweet. Writing Style is spare. It has detailed and wonderful illustrations, as well as, a good rhyming quality. It is for young children.
