Another connection to Snowflake Bentley is Johanna Hurwitz's FARAWAY SUMMER which, strangely enough, is illustrated by Mary Azarian. Although Willy is simply the eccentric neighbor in this historical fiction, it is an interesting read that provides a window on the world in which he lived. The art style is the same but each woodcut is unique and different from the picture storybook. Linda
