The day starts out cold and gray, but when flakes start to fall it's time for this little girl to run outside and make a snowman. When she's ready, she puts on the finishing touch: a stick in the shape of a smile. Although the snowman eventually melts, there's the anticipation of making another one next winter.
Told from the snowman's perspective, You Make Me Smile brings the joys of winter alive. The lovely illustrations and spare words make this one perfect for lap reading and read-alouds, and the timing is great for capturing children's beginning-of-winter enthusiasm.
