Product Description
Have you ever built a snowman and discovered the next day that his grin has gotten a little crooked, or his tree-branch arms have moved? And you've wondered . . . what do snowmen do at night? This delightful wintertime tale reveals all! Caralyn Buehner's witty, imaginative verse offers many amusing details about the secret life of snowmen and where they go at night, while Mark Buehner's roly-poly snowmen are bursting with personality and charm. From the highly successful team that created such winning titles as Fanny's Dream, Snowmen at Night is fabulous, frosty, and fun!

Snowmen *do* move during the night, shifting with the shifting temperatures, but it's a lot more fun to imagine that they go down slides and play games and drink hot (?) cocoa, isn't it? Especially if you get to look for hidden pictures at the same time.
I love the colors in this book, btw.

Kids like the idea of a snowman 'sneaking' around at night and then not looking so great, come morning - offering a funny reason for that fact.

This is a great book with a fun premise of explaining why in the morning snowmen often look a little droopy - and it has nothing to do with higher temperatures, sublimation of snow, or anything as mundane as that. It turns out they have a wonderful time of it whooping it up around town and all their secrets are revealed in this book! Terrific illustrations which also include things to be found in each picture and that makes this title even more fun to read again and again. I have two kids ages 5 and 7 and this one is a real family favorite at our house!
Other favorites to check out include: Snowmen at Christmas, The Relatives Came (Live Oak Readalong), The Hello, Goodbye Window, Bear Snores on, and Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs.
