Our Review
A magical snowman comes to life and the kids will do whatever it takes to trap him:
From a trampoline to ice hockey, a snow globe to a summer getaway, there’s endless fun to be had in this book!
My nephew and I love this series, and his parents implement a book advent calendar rather than chocolate. These Christmas-themed books by Adam Wallace are perfect for the daily nighttime festive treat!
A great read-aloud for Story Times and families, perfect for this wintry weather; Also provides some great inspiration and S.T.E.A.M. ideas on how to build your own snowman traps! Although, maybe that might not be a necessarily good thing with some particularly brazen children…
As always, this is another excellent addition to the How to Catch series, and in my opinion, a perfect stocking stuffer for Christmas Eve!
