This puppy has never experienced winter before and is overly enthusiastic. He ends up feeling that “winter is weird” as he experiences the Christmas season yard ornaments. Yoon portrays an amusing dog’s-eye view, exposing the humans as only their knees and boots. Apparently this is part of Is This…? series, but I am not familiar with it. The short sentences work well for younger children, but I am unsure they will understand the concept of lawn ornaments. The dog seems overly manic to me but the white space nicely depicts the winter season.
