The Snowman

Review

This modern classic is completely without words. It is the story (told in pictures) of a boy who builds a snowman. Unable to sleep because of the excitement, the boy slips outside in his dressing-gown: the snowman comes to life and they have some adventures together. This is the kind of book that stays with you for a lifetime.  Age 1-100 - review by Johnny de Falbe
