Snowmen at Christmas

Darling book! We loved the original book, Snowmen at Night, and thought this would be a good one too. It is cute and we were d especially pleased it had a focus on Jesus Christ, our Savior, the true focus of Christmas! We also love the hidden pictures.

No too long, not too short. Great art work. Not too many words. Cute story. Stirs imagination. I do wish the art work was a bit lighter, but do understand that most of the story takes place at night. Still difficult for children to see if reading to a larger group who are further away.

This is a fun book about how snowmen celebrate Christmas while we are all asleep. We found it to be really cute to see what snowmen do to celebrate the holiday. It has a very magical feel, with really nice illustrations. The story is easy to read and really captures the Christmas spirit. It has a nice rhyming pattern. For those wondering about the Santa vs. Christianity balance, Snow Santa makes an appearance and brings gifts, but the snowmen sing songs about the birth of a King. This isn't here to start a debate, more just to let those who care know that Santa and Jesus are both referenced in the book. This could be a pro or a con for certain customers. We really enjoy this board book. The quality is high, the story is fun, and it is beautiful to look at. A real winner in our home during Christmas.

Best Christmas book ever. My son and I read this so many nights, for so many years, I have so many good memories of it. It was often our first pic to read each night leading up to Christmas. The illustrations are so beautiful, the vignettes of snowmen enjoying life while we all sleep....so gorgeous. And the hidden characters on each page lend to hours of pouring over each page, heads together, searching. One of my favorite books of all time. Unfortunately my son is now a teenager...I'll need to wait for a grandchild to spend a lot of time with it again. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Beautiful book, great story, lovely illustrations. I love that there are things to find in each illustration. My son, who is 2 1/2, LOVES pointing to the mouse every time I turn the page. I have a great time looking for everything too. Some are really hard to find and there are a couple things I still haven’t found. The pictures are truly beautiful and the story is sweet too. You don’t always find books where the story and illustrations are great, but with this book you do. Not sure which I like more, the illustrations or story. Definitely recommend in hardback!

We read this book at our elementary school, both kids and staff loved it.

I bought this for my son, but, having read it just now, I'm going to read it aloud at Christmas with our whole family. Snowmen, we wonder, must some how celebrate Christmas. After we're asleep, they assemble in the town square for a night of festivities, sharing with the snow Santa, and returning to their homes. I liked the story, word choices (although once in a while wanted a stanza to rhyme). The drawings were well done, a bit misty as it was night time, that reinforced themagical element of the story, the coming to life of humanity to celebrate the birth of The King. 28 pages was more than many board books, but, given that it is also available in other formats, it is a nice extra! I enjoyed it and I found it uplifting. I recommend this for families, church libraries, school and public libraries. It provides ideas for a family to spend quality time together, building a snowman, (I'm also partial to snowdogs), make snow ice cream, color / draw / paint and talk together. I give everything a "grade" and I give this book an "A-"!

My grandson wanted me to read this to him a lot during the Christmas season, and it's still a favorite. The pictures are cute and the story is fun! I have a feeling we'll still be reading this book even when the weather gets warmer.

Il libro, arrivato come sempre nei tempi previsti e in ottime condizioni nonostante la situazione metereologica, è piacevole nel suo insieme. La storia non è eccezionalmente brillante, originale o accattivante (illustra le attività dei pupazzi di neve di notte, quando gli esseri umani dormono), ma è carina, allegra e quasi in rima (molte rime si basano più sull'assonanza, ma funzionano comunque). Le illustrazioni (non tanto quelle degli "umani", che hanno uno stile un po' "polar express" che non amo troppo, ma quelle dei pupazzi, dei loro "addobbi" variopinti e delle strade notturne innevate) sono speciali: ho apprezzato soprattutto le forme simpatiche dei protagonisti, i pupazzi, la colorazione dei bianchi, multisfaccettati e morbidi, e le luci a tinte calde. Le immagini insomma rievocano proprio lo spirito natalizio, gelido ma molto caloroso. Avvertimenti: il libro, cartonato e quindi resistente, è di piccole dimensioni (circa 10x15 cm), non grande come potrebbe sembrare dalla foto; inoltre è in inglese, anche se fruibile senza una grande conoscenza della lingua.

We love these Snowmen books, we have Snowmen at Night, Snowmen at Halloween, and now Snowmen at Christmas. They have brought a lot of joy to our household. The art and the story are beautiful, and they have little challenges that you can do while you're reading through the book. The book arrived in perfect condition.

A lovely read for our Christmas Advent reading box - imagine what Snowmen would do if they all came to life at night. This charming little book suggests what they might get up to in a way that makes you want to join them!

Esta colección ha pasado ha ser la favorita de mi hija! Magnífica ilustración y una historia original donde los muñecos de nieve cobran vida. Cada noche sale un libro de la colección. Esta en inglés.

クリスマスも好きですが、Snowmanが大好きな我が家にピッタリのものがたり。 小さい頃は雪の少ない所で育ちましたが、子どもの健康面からIターンし、雪の降るときはどっさり降る山里に越しました。 以来、雪が降るとSnowmanを作ったり、キャンドルホルダーを作ったりしました。そんな子どもももう成人。 寒～い夜にもしかしたらSnowmanが動き出してくれる？？なんて夢とロマンのあるものがたり 大人が楽しめるものがたりです。
