review 1: A sweet book about the love a young boy has for his snowman. As the leaves fall from the trees and the first snow covers the ground, a boy plays in the snow and then makes a snowman who becomes his friend. When spring arrives, the snowman melts and the boy realizes that his snowman is "in the falling water and the rain upon the ocean." And as the seasons pass and winter returns, he realizes, "What you love will always be with you." A heartwarming story with lovely illustrations.
review 2: A beautifully illustrated story about a boy who makes a snowman, then it melts, and he waits all year to build another one. What is so nice about this story is how the author gently reminds readers that "what you love will always be with you". The illustrations are simpl... moree yet effective at conveying the changing seasons. This book would work well on separation of loved ones for whatever reason, as second book about snowmen, or for making friends. less
