What do you do with snow? For some people it means hard work; some it helps to make a good living. A few even make their houses with it. And to a great many young people it means fun—new kinds of play and good sport.

This book tells all about snow for all those who either live with it or wonder about it. From snowmen to snow blowers it describes what you do with it. From snowflakes to snow blankets it tells how it is formed. It tells what snow does to city budgets, what it does for the farmers, and how it is made for the skiers.

As simply and clearly as she told how geography influences you in Why We Live Where We Live, Eva Knox Evans know explains the effects of a fascinating natural phenomenon on the daily lives of millions of people.
