A snow kid's identity is tested when a breeze changes everything.
Twig, a snow kid crafted from snowflakes and twigs, faces an identity crisis when a gust of wind steals their hat. As Twig chases after it, they discover that change might not be so bad. Can Twig embrace new experiences and find others like them? Join Twig on a journey of self-discovery, where being a snow person means more than just staying the same. Will Twig find a new way to be themselves, or is there only one way to be a snow kid? Explore the magic of transformation and friendship in this heartwarming tale.
From the New York Times bestselling creator of Not Quite Narwhal, Jessie Sima, comes a “gentle, reassuring” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) wintery picture book about a snow kid finding out what it means to be themself! Meet Twig, the snow kid! Like all snow kids, Twig was made from many snowflakes, twigs, stones, a crisp orange carrot, and a very fine hat. What a wonderful thing it is to be Twig! Except…could they still be Twig if a strong breeze blows away their hat? As Twig chases after the hat, more things keep changing, and they keep growing and moving and talking. Is there still a way to go back to being Twig? Maybe not. But maybe there’s more than one way to be a snow person, and it can be fun to walk and talk and grow and change. Twig can find snow people like them even as they’re still learning how to become Twig, and that’s a wonderful thing!
