Snowflake Bentley by Jacqueline Briggs Martin
Setting: Vermont
Characters: Wilson Bentley, Mother, Father, Neighbors
Theme: Don't give up on your dreams
Wilson Bentley loved snow! He loved everything about it. His mother finally bought him a microscope for him to look at snowflakes even closer. His father thought that messing around with snowflakes was foolish. He invested in a camera to take pictures of snowflakes. It didn't work well at first, but he eventually got the hang of it. To this day there is a museum with his pictures showing that each snowflake is different.
