When a playful wind sprite sends a snowman rolling through a quaint village, the townsfolk help to dress him as he passes by. In pursuit by a young girl with a wish to dance with her dapper snowman, the sprite makes her snowy dream come true.

Book Synopsis

A modern winter classic about magic, kindness, and a snowman on the move.

From the award-winning author of The Roll-Away Pumpkin and I Love You Through Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall.

Just before Marla Little finishes building her snowman, a mischievous wind sprite sweeps him off his snowy feet and sends him rolling through the village!

As the dapper snowman tumbles through town, the friendly villagers quickly dress him with buttons from the haberdasher, a carrot from the greengrocer, and a hat from the milliner. By the time the wind settles, magic has taken hold-and Marla's snowy friend becomes something truly special.

Set against enchanting, hand-drawn illustrations, this lyrical winter tale weaves themes of community, generosity, and wonder. With its gentle rhyme and joyful repeating refrain, it's a heartwarming storybook for chilly nights and snowy mornings.

Perfect for:

• Fans of The Snowman, The Mitten, and The Snowy Day
• Holiday and winter read-alouds
• Sharing the magic of kindness and imagination
• Ages 3-8, families, classrooms, and cozy lap reading
