Winter is a time of cool weather, snow fun, and cozy nights curled up near a fire or in a favorite chair. It's a time for hot cocoa and celebration! In honor of this season, the library team has put together a guide that features winter themed books, winter recipe books, fun recipes shared by NVC staff to try at home, movie clips, film recommendations, and even a page sharing famous works of art about winter.. Enjoy!

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.
My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.
He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.
The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
