Book Review 12: Stories of Snowmen


I read this book “Stories of Snowmen” Why I chose this book, the book’s cover was so cute. The snowman is sparkling. Recently, it is too hot so I want to feel coolness. Which do you like better, winter or summer? I like winter more than summer because I am weak on living in summer. The story is in winter so I thought that I can get cool. In addition, I was born in Kumamoto and I live in Kumamoto now. Therefore I have never seen much snow and big snowmen. My dream is to run about in the snow.

The main characters in this book are Jack, snowman and Mr. Oats. Jack made snowman hard because he wanted to make the best snowman ever. The snowman is really nice!! He had two black pebbles’ eyes, four more for a smiley mouth, carrot nose, hat and scarf. He is as tall as Jack. Jack named him ‘Chilly’. It was so good name, I think.

One day, Mr. Oats who lives next door was putting up a sign. It was invitation of ‘Grand Christmas Party’. They prepared for the big bonfire next to snowman. The next morning, they found that the bonfire disappeared. Mr. Oats doubted Jack and he was angry at him. Jack feels terrible and he thinks “who would steal a bonfire?” He went out and he found that Chilly is taking down the bonfire. Chilly is alive!! They were surprised each other. What is interesting, all snowmen come alive at night. Why he took down the bonfire, the bonfire located in close to Chilly. Jack thought well and he moved the bonfire far from Chilly. They worked hard and built a new large bonfire!

Mr. Oats and Jack made up a quarrel and they enjoyed Christmas Party! It was so happy and interesting story. I liked it and I could feel cool a little:) I want you to read this book because you will be happy.
