Illustrated by
Mark Buehner.
Upon noticing that a snowman appears disheveled the morning after being made, a child imagines what snowmen do at night--such as drinking ice-cold cocoa, skating, sledding, and playing baseball. Told in rhyme, the story is imaginative and fast paced, and the rich oil over acrylic paintings (which contain the artist's signature hidden shapes) are jubilant, energetic, and reflective of a mischievous mood.
