Wow. Such an awesome review. I can already tell this book is uniquely written. I'mean glad the author came up with an enticing reading piece that will be easy for childrenergy to read and appreciate the book...written in rhyme that makes it more appealing to children and one they can easily regOster in their psyche.

Books that contain good values such as kindness and acceptance are truly a welcome stuff, a hearty alternative to books filled with crimes and gory scenes. This is a breath of Christmas air.

This sounds like a beautiful book. I love the story of Frosty the Snowman and this sounds like a similarly wonderful tale. Thank you for all your suggestions of extra activities to do with children while reading this book - that’s a great way to get them more involved!

I enjoyed reading your well-written, thorough review. I like that the story has a good plot with a clear problem and resolution because some children's books don't have much of a plot. It's also nice that the facial expressions are illustrated well so kids can follow the visual cues. Glad you enjoyed the story!

I love children's narratives. I think Yossi Lapid's Christmas with Snowman Paul, at this season, will make an exciting read for kids. I like the themes of friendship and acceptance in this book because they address significant children/young adult issues.

I too enjoyed the simple yet artistic illustrations that helped tell the story of Paul the Snowman. Paul can help children of all ages understand the significance and importance of our emotions and how to share with friends. Yes it is a holiday based story, but has the message that can withstand any season. A true joy that makes your heart smile.

I haven't read the book yet but i have a little niece and this review makes me want to read it to her. She's 4, so exactly the age that enjoys a cute friendship and Christmas story like this one and the bigger the illustrations the better, so that point (along with the correct grammar) really sold it for me.

My son often wants me to read to him and I do, but at the same time the stories never keep his attention for long. I may have to purchase this one and read it to him.

It is always important to have a book for a child that teaches an important lesson. I love the cover of the book and the sample was fun!

Great review. I too loved frosty as a child and think that this sounds like the perfect Christmas book for my little granddaughter with its rhyming, humor, watercolor illustration and message of acceptance and friendship. Thanks so much for sharing.
