review 1: The Snowman’s Story is a wordless book that tells its story through picture. It’s a story of a snowman whose hat gives him the ability to come to life and embark on a journey with the animals of the forest. It’s a very detailed book due to the pictures and the ability to understand and fallow along as the snowman progresses through the story. You know what he’s thinking and his goals simply from the detailed illustration. One aspect of the book that I really enjoyed was that there were no words. Even though you can understand what the pictures are trying to show and tell you it gives the children the ability to use their imagination and go along in a way that they want to. The kids can make up the story that they want to see or that they want to hear. So while it i... mores fun it’s also a way to get their brains going by letting them decide what’s happening based off what they see. It was enjoyable and different.
review 2: I think Will Hillenbrand's illustrations are so sweet. I love the snow, the snowman's rosy cheeks, and the animals' expressions. When a bunny's curiosity tempts him to crawl into a top hat in the snow, the wind sweeps him away in it and lands atop a snowman's head, bringing him to life. A penguin brings him a book to read to the group of forest animals, captivating them. However, when Snowman falls asleep, the bunny whisks away the book, awakening the snowman and starting a chase. Cute ending. Everyone loves a good book! less
