How to Catch a Snowman by Adam WallaceMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Cute Holiday Book
I read this book with my grandchildren (ages 5 and 7). My grandson brought it from the library, and we read it as a family. It was a lovely memory.
From the adult view: I think this was adorable. It had cute memories from Frosty to Olaf. It brought holiday cheer to me from past and present, making it a fun experience.
From the child view: The kids seemed to really enjoy the illustrations and the rhyming text. They connected less with Frosty and more with Olaf, which made me giggle. It was a sign of the times, for sure. The adventurous game of chase appealed to them, as well, but it didn’t hold their attention well as some of books we have read together.
I think this will be a bit subjective. I think if you have a calmer child who enjoys reading, they will engage more in this title. My active grandson struggled a bit to get through it before he disengaged to move onto something else. We all really liked it, but it might be best as a bedtime tale.
