In early fall, Isaac and his mom moved from the Philippines to Wisconsin. It was quite a change. The Philippines is hot and wet. Wisconsin has cold winters and lots of snow. Isaac and his mom had never seen snow.
"Nanay, when is it going to snow?" Isaac asked his mom.
His mom was washing rice. "Not until most of the leaves fall from the trees," she said.
"When will that be?" Isaac asked.
"In a little while, I think."
One afternoon, a leaf fell and landed on Isaac's head. "It's happening!" Isaac said. "The leaves are falling. Soon it will snow."
"Maybe," Nanny said.
