15 Adorable Snowman Books for Kids

November 17, 2021 by Selena Robinson Leave a Comment

Have you ever built a snowman?

I got a chance to…once.

Down here in Georgia, we don’t get snow often. And when we do, it’s usually what we call a “dusting”. Just enough to be pretty as it falls, but not enough to stick to the ground.

One winter, when I was about four, we actually had a legitimate snowfall. And we built a snowman in the front yard.

It was awesome.

I still think about that snowman every winter.

And, so, I’m sharing a list of adorable snowman books for kids to help your early readers get into the winter spirit, whether you have a chance to build a snowman this year or not.

These books are super cute for young children. And they’re filled with lovely illustrations that are perfect for winter weather!

It takes a while for cold weather to reach us all the way down here in the South. But once it comes, it tends to stay for the rest of the season. Around the middle of November, we pull out our coats and we typically wear them without a break until April. 🙂
