A child imagines what it would be like if a snowman, made of magical snow, could be a companion throughout the year.

"Hooray! It is a snow day! And what a perfect time to make a snowman. But Little Sister needs help putting on her boots, Dad needs a hand with shoveling, and Gator wants to build a fort. Will Little Critter ever get to build a snowman?"--Cover back.

Bear builds a snowman when he and his friends go outside to play one winter day, but trying to make the snowman look warm has Bear revealing his long underwear, and starting a trend.

Young children learn to count and to add as they read about one hundred snowmen who are participating in a variety of activities, such as skiing, trying on hats and mittens, and playing hide-and-seek.

A snowman who finds it dreadfully cold keeps doing things that cause him to melt, while the children who rebuild him each time offer clothing to keep him warm.

A little snowflake falls from the sky hoping to be a part of the biggest and best snowman ever.
