The snowman

Book • 1978
In this wordless picture book, a young boy builds a snowman on a snowy winter's day.

At midnight, the snowman comes to life, and the boy and the snowman embark on a magical journey, playing with household items, riding a motorcycle, and flying over the South Downs.

The story captures the wonder and innocence of childhood and is recognized worldwide for its beautiful illustrations and timeless tale.
