This is a great book to read when you want to talk about weather or the seasons. It starts out talking about when it is going to snow and then all the snow people that are built. Then it talks about when the weather gets warmer and the snow people and animals start to melt.

A snow story, from before the snow falls, to building a snow family, to watching the family melt. The pictures are photographs of the author's artwork and text is simple and large. The artwork is very innovative, but there is no story nor catchy language to support the pictures. The best use of this book would be as a read aloud before assigning kids to create their own snowman art, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get this book in a library. It would fit just fine in a preschool or public library collection. ( )
