Treasures of the Snow is a children's story book by Patricia St. John. [2] Originally published by CSSM in 1950, it has been reprinted over a dozen times by various publishers, including braille versions published by the Royal National Institute for the Blind in 1959 [ 3 ] and by the Queensland Braille Writing Association in 1996.

The book begins when Peter, The Snowy Day's protagonist, wakes up to the season's first snowfall. In his bright red snowsuit, he goes outside and makes footprints and trails through the snow. Next, Peter is too young to join a snowball fight with older kids, so he makes a snowman and snow angels and slides down a hill.
Between 1856 and 1876, he delivered mail between Placerville, California and Genoa, Nevada and later Virginia City, Nevada.Despite his nickname, he did not make use of the snowshoes that are native to North America, but rather would travel with what the local people applied that term to: ten-foot (over 3-meter) skis, and a single sturdy pole generally held in both hands at once.
On the night of 8–9 February 1855 and one or two later nights, [1] after a heavy snowfall, a series of hoof-like marks appeared in the snow.These footprints, most of which measured about 4 inches (10 cm) long, 3 inches (7.6 cm) across, between 8 and 16 inches (20 and 41 cm) apart and mostly in a single file, were reported from more than 30 locations across Devon and a couple in Dorset.

A poor hardworking shoemaker had so little leather that he could only make a single pair of shoes. One evening, leaving the pair with the work unfinished, he went to bed and commended himself to God. After waking up the following day and saying his prayers, he found the shoes finished and perfectly well-made on his workbench.
