On the 6th Day Til Christmas...

...The Snowman’s Song – A Christmas Story

“There is not enough darkness in the world to extinguish the light of one small candle,” (Spanish proverb).

Never was there a truer statement, as a sad little snowman learns what a little faith and the love of a kind heart can do.

The little snowman’s sits quietly with his only thought - the longing to sing…
….”I want my voice to be like church bells or like harps that angels play in the clouds!”

But everyone knows that snowmen are silent and can only communicate through their thoughts. With a song in his heart and the longing to express it, the snowman soon becomes discouraged – that is until a small bird brings him some timely advice…“just believe.”

Could it be that simple?

Soon another small visitor with a kind and faithful heart inadvertently gives the snowman every thing he has ever longed for.

The Snowman’s Song – A Christmas Story, written by Marilee Joy Mayfield and illustrated by Tracy La Rue Hohn, is sure to become a Christmas favourite. This sweet book shows that love and a little faith will always prevail. The beautiful illustrations immediately pull you into the wintery tone of the story.

Winner of The Mom’s Choice Award, this book is a must have for Christmas. In addition, The Snowman’s Song even comes with a CD with author, Marilee reading her wonderful tale.
