Polacco writes humorous, inspiring, and thought-provoking stories. She also has a PhD in Art History and illustrates all of her books.

Looking at snowflake designs!

"Under a microscope, I found that snowflakes were miracles of beauty; and it seemed a shame that this beauty should not be seen and appreciated by others. Every crystal was a masterpiece of design and no design was ever repeated. When that snowflake melted, that design was forever lost. Just that much beauty was gone, without leaving any record behind."
