K-3Henry and Mudge Books series.
Illustrated by
Sucie Stevenson.
When Henry and his dog Mudge see a poster for a snowman-building contest, they race home to tell Henry's dad. They find him in the basement, painting a chair. For the contest, father and son construct a likeness of Henry's pop when he paints (including splotches of green paint everywhere) and win third place: "Most Original Snowman." Stevenson's upbeat illustrations add to Rylant's warm story about these familiar characters.
