Summary:
The snowy day: A city snowfall has a boy making snow angels, snowballs, sliding down snow mountains - and looking forward to going outside again.

Goggles!: Peter and his friend call upon a faithful dog to outsmart a gang of bullies who want Peter's motorcycle goggles. Whistle for Willie: For Peter, learning to whistle means being able to call his dog, and being a bit closer to being grown up. Pet show!: Archie needs to come up with a pet in a hurry for the neighborhood pet show. Peter's chair: Peter wants to run away when his baby sister arrives, but soon learns something important about growing up. A letter to Amy: Something extraordinary happens when Peter tries to mail Amy an invitation to his birthday. The trip: Louie constructs a shoebox diorama and uses his imagination to visit his old neighborhood.
