One December morning, James is thrilled to wake up to see snow falling.

That night, something magical happens – the Snowman comes to life!

He and James take to the skies on a magical adventure where they meet someone very special.

Inspired by the timeless tale, Michael Morpurgo and Robin Shaw have created the perfect story for the whole family to share together as a new Christmas tradition.

Praise for The Snowman:

‘In Raymond Briggs’ story, a boy’s dream comes true. Somehow, Michael Morpurgo makes Briggs’ story come true. . . it has all the wonder of reading The Snowman for the first time.’Colin Firth

‘If anyone was going to give words to this classic, it had to be Morpurgo. A perfect book, perfect story, perfectly told.’ – Angels & Urchins

‘The Snowman by Michael Morpurgo not only brings a much-loved tale to a new audience, it brings with it an extra layer of festive magic. We predict this book will fast become as much a part of every family Christmas as snuggling down with a hot chocolate to catch the classic animation on TV.’ – JUNIOR magazine
