책 소개

Virginia Lee Burton (1909-1968) was the talented author and illustrator of some of the most enduring books ever written for children. The winner of the 1942 Caldecott Medal for THE LITTLE HOUSE, Burton's books include heroes and happy endings, lively illustrations, and a dash of nostalgia. She lived with her two sons, Aristides and Michael, and her husband George Demetrios, the sculptor, in a section of Gloucester, Massachusetts, called Folly Cove. Here she taught a class in design and from it emerged the Folly Cove designers, a group of internationally known professional artisans. She is the author of many classic children's picture books, including MIKE MULLIGAN AND HIS STEAM SHOVEL and KATY AND THE BIG SNOW.
For more than 60 years, children have been enjoying the story of Katy, the strong and sturdy tractor who single-handedly digs out her town after a storm buries it beneath a blanket of snow. Now, this classic tale is available in a book-and-CD set. Full color.
In this paperback edition of Katy and the Big Snow, complete with CD audio recording, Katy, a brave and untiring tractor, who pushes a bulldozer in the summer and a snowplow in the winter, makes it possible for the townspeople to do their jobs.
Katy, a strong and sturdy tractor, works for the Highway Department of the City of Geoppolis. Katy works hard and takes pride in her work, whether she is bulldozing dirt in the summer or plowing snow in the winter. Unfortunately for Katy, Geoppolis doesn't receive much snow. But one day a big blizzard blankets Geoppolis and disrupts everyone's day-to-day activities and Katy is the only one who can help dig out the city and restore order.
"Bright, vigorous pictures with plenty of action and endless detail portray Katy at work for the Highway Department of the city of Geoppolis."
Virginia Lee Burton's classic winter title now available in a book and CD set!
