After an early snowfall, a few kids build some snowmen before going trick-or-treating, in this engaging story for readers and listeners up to 6. After bedtime, though, the snowmen have their own Halloween festival! Shown in Mark Buehner's cheery, rather cinematic paintings, the snowmen revel in candy and apple-bobbing and costume contests and all sorts of autumn activities. When the kids wake up the next morning, the snowmen are gone, but they've left a very special message behind.
