Vintage 1972 copy. In remarkably good condition for its 52 years. Listed in Fair condition due to signs of wear on front and rear cover. Also, small tear along bottom spine (see photos). Keats wrote and illustrated The Snowy Day, the story of a little boy named Peter who is finally allowed to venture into the snow alone. The book won the 1963 Caldecott Medal, and it broke a persistent color barrier: Peter was the first Black boy to be the main character of a mainstream children's book.
