The Snowman (Step-Into-Reading, Step 1)

This is a fabulous wordless book! My preschool students can read it independently and really enjoyed it during our snowmen unit!

Wonderful book, a classic.

First, we loved the "original" video version of this story. Now we also love the book version! The kids used to watch the video, back in the days of VHS! They used to request it when not feeling well, resting on the couch.... till it became a family tradition. Now, the grand children have the DVD format to enjoy, with similar soothing experience. Highly recommend getting the DVD with this book. Soothing, restful, and happily beautiful artwork, sweet story line with a charming little boy. Exceptional quality (memorized) music from the video plays in our heads when we look through this book. The story is wordless, so non-readers can tell the story of this brief but unforgettable friendship in their own words. Images are like screen shots from the video, in more than 175 picture frames. Glad to find this, matching the original video rather than the updated video version.

Great buy

The BEST Seasonal Story EVER! A family Favorite. No matter you faith path or personal perspective on it all....THIS book lets a childs mind wonder and wander at the miracle of it all! You WILL want the DVD after reading this so just buy it now!

One of the Best children’s picture book. The video is wonderful too!

Great story, I like that my little one can learn to read along with a movie he loves. The only downside was with the quality of the book. I ordered "new" and it was worn in places and had a bent cover. Kind of a bummer.

I ordered this book when I read that the author/ illustrator had passed away that day. The AMAZING thing about this beautiful book are its illustrations and and the fact that there are no words, only the words the reader chooses to say while looking at the pictures. It's perfect for beginner readers who can make their own story or adults who read to littles.

Ths book is an absolute mus-have for any child. The story is lovely (although a little sad) and a good companion to the short-film (1982, I think, featuring David Bowie!). The quality of printing is excellent, which makes it a good Xmas present. Shipping and packaging were OK, No extra delay.

Beautiful work wonderful story

Un livre que j'adore. C'est bande-dessinée sans texte, ce qui permet aux familles multicuturelles et multilingues d'avoir au moins un support de "lecture" a partager avec les tout-petits quelle que soit la langue du parent qui partage ce moment avec l'enfant, puisqu'il commente l'histoire et y ajoute son talent de conteur, son vécu, sa personalité. L'enfant demande souvent à tous les adultes de le lire puisque chacun y apporte quelque chose de différent. C'est aussi un grand classique anglo-saxon, une belle histoire poétique de petit garcon qui partage une nuit avec un bonhomme de neige, des dessins tout en douceur. Cet exemplaire est de taille "BD" mais avec une couverture souple, et très beau papier. Mes soeurs, cousins, neveux et nièces l'ont tous adoré en leur temps ou l'adorent encore. C'est pourquoi j'en ai racheté un, afin de le faire découvrir aux nouveaux petits de la famille.

Ho utilizzato il libro per una lettura di approfondimento in classe. I miei alunni lo hanno adorato, sia per la storia che per le illustrazioni. Essendo grande hanno apprezzato i disegni ben visibili e i colori vividi. Consigliato.
