Bookroo's summary

Beaver, skilled at crafting but not friendships, decides to build a snowman to cure his loneliness. As he works, Raccoon joins in, and together they create the perfect snowy companion. However, when the snowman turns out to be a bit too chilly, Beaver realizes he might have found a real friend in Raccoon. This heartwarming tale of unexpected friendship unfolds in a winter wonderland, inviting young readers to discover the joy of making new connections.

From the publisher

Beaver is good at making just about everything…but not friends. One winter day, Beaver sees some snowflakes in the sky and gets a great idea: he’ll make a friend. Yes! A snowman will be a great friend!

Raccoon passes by as Beaver sets to work and offers a helping hand. The two work side by side to give their snowman everything a friend needs.

But when the snowman proves to be a little cold, Beaver discovers that he may have unknowingly “made” another buddy instead.

Perfect for snuggling together for a read-aloud, this sweet snowy friendship story from Tammi Sauer and Alison Friend will warm the hearts of young readers.
