What's Snowball About

Publisher Summary

A curious little snowball makes a clumsy move on his walk down the hill and into town. What happens next? Just roll with it! Grab your winter gear and join Snowball on his journey into town. Just be careful you’re not in his way when he starts to roll down the hill, or like an unsuspecting sheep, a string of sausages, and even an electric eel, you too will get picked up and packed into the giant snowball! This hilariously fun board book will have even the littlest readers bouncing along to an upbeat rhyme as Snowball bounces and rolls from page to page. Perfect for stay-at-home silly snow days or anytime a laugh is needed to get through the chilly winter season.

The Creatives Behind the Book

Author

Sue Hendra

Sue Hendra studied illustration at Brighton University while also selling doughnuts from a kiosk at Chessington Zoo. Sue has now illustrated over 100 books for children. When Sue met Paul Linnet she found another person with the same silly sense of humor as her and they fell in love and started writing and illustrating together. Their creative brilliance soon led them to come up with a wealth of bestselling, award-winning picture books including Barry the Fish with Fingers, Norman the Slug with the Silly Shell, Supertato, and most recently the Laugh Out Loud Book Award–winning I Need a Wee. Sue and Paul live in Brighton with their daughter Wanda who inspired Sue’s picture book and TV series Wanda and the Alien.
