It's always fun for kids when it happens to snow, especially if you happen to live where it simply does not snow, just like our author and photographer do. In that case, sometimes you have to travel to see the snow, even while some people (perhaps even your relatives) are shoveling out from under the snow while snowplows clear the streets so people can get to work. On the other hand, there are many advantages to being in the snow, like being able to make snow angels and snowmen. And you can even have a friendly snowball fight with your best friend But even if you can't find any snow when you come to beautiful Grass Valley, there is plenty here for a kid to do and see And besides, you might not even be going during that time of year Use this fun, 'learn to read' book to see what you can see when you come to town. Grass Valley was a part of the gold rush, and is the home of the Empire and North Star Mines that date way back to the historical gold rush days You can even take tours of the mines and learn their histories And everyone will love the historic buildings of downtown Grass Valley Finally, don't forget to watch the free music video on the Bellissimavideo YouTube channel that goes with this book
