Its winter & snowing. Dan decides to build a snowman.
He names it Paul.
Snowman Paul wants to play with Dan.
Bill (BMF) thinks that is weird, you can’t play with snowmen.
Paul is no ordinary snowman & insist they 2 boys play with him.

What happens next in this winter adventure.

I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, only an honest one.

A very awesome book cover, great colored pictures & proper font & writing style. A very well written children’s (ages 2-5) snowman rhyme story book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great children’s snowman movie, an animated cartoon, or better yet a mini TV series. A very easy rating of 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book to teach kids to do what they like to do even if someone disagrees
Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2021

"My Snowman, Paul" is a very short book written in rhyme. The rhyming works quite well, but it does get broken up a little because some words to end the verses are on different pages. The story has some humor in it which kids will really like. I mean, how can you go for a snack and just leave the snowman's head on the ground, even if a bully is laughing at you? Well, the snowman doesn't like his head not attached, so the boy puts on the snowman's head. Then, the boy and the snowman, Paul, have fun together despite the mean neighbor.
This is a great story for kids to help them realize to do things that they like to do even if someone criticizes them or makes fun of them. There are always people who like you for who you are and will enjoy what you do. You cannot please everyone, so do what makes you happy. If you want to make a snowman, but your neighbor thinks it's dumb, so what? If you like, it, make the snowman! Of course, this could translate to other situations as well.
While the story is short, it packs a great lesson. The book would probably appeal to younger kids since it is short, but it also might appeal to older readers who struggle learning how to read. The rhyming pattern could be very helpful to kids.
This would be a good book for kids around ages 3-8.

4.0 out of 5 stars What an adorable read for youngsters!
Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2017

This adorable, simple read is one that young children would simply enjoy! The illustrations are welcoming, warming, and work well with the story at hand.

Written in simplistic language and in a rhyming fashion, I can see parents/teachers reading it with preschool and Kindergarten children. It could even be used a learning tool for simple poems for children to learn.

When Dan was worried about what a neighbor would think of his newfound friend, I found it both heartbreaking and endearing due to the outcome. In other words, this could be a nice introduction to friendship and what others may think/say to certain friends.

The only suggestion I would make is to keep the rhyming lines together on the same page rather than separating them. Written in AA, BB, CC, etc. rhyme, it was a bit of a challenge to find a rhythm when, for example, line C would be on one page and its rhyming partner C was on the other page.

Overall, I really enjoyed this read and it warmed my heart. I would recommend this read to early readers who enjoy rhymes, and to parents/teachers to read to young children!

I loved the illustrations in this book, with lots of detail and perfect for young children, my 4 year old grandson found the story was easy to listen to and wants to read it again tonight.
If your kids love Raymond Briggs' 'the snowman' then they'll love this snowman too...
The story touched slightly on peer pressure but it was a bit lost on a 4 yr old and didn't go into detail for older kids. But its nice to see kids books trying to highlight the issues that kids deal with on a daily basis.
It also has a good rhythm to read out loud, since it is written in rhyme. I'll enjoy reading it again tonight

The book is adorable. What a cute story but I purchased this as a gift and it came with some big odd sticker on the front. It look like someone tried to peel part of it off, but about the size of a quarter (coin) was left. So I gifted a damaged book because I didn't have time for a return.

Have you ever made a snowman? Was it fun?

The author, Yossi Lapid, has written a fun story about a little boy named Dan. One day it was snowing and Dan’s mom suggested he goout and make a snowman. Dan thought about it, and he said, well Billy thinks it is silly. Dan’s mom said he should go out because toda6 was the best kind of day to make a snowman. Out went Dan, and he made a beautiful body of a snowman, and he was starting on it’s head when he saw Billy looking at him. Dan decided to go in for a snack when he heard a voice, the snowman was talking to him. When you read this book you will discover what exciting things happen.

Adults will enjoy reading this book to their children. The children will love the snowman and will want to go out and build their own as soon as it snows. The children will be able to identify that Billy may be a bully. The illustrations by Joanna Pasek are bright, vivid and colorful. They depict the adventures of Dan and his snowman. There are lessons to be learned in this book, and that will be of interest to the children and their adults

I am in love with Paul and his human, Dan. This is a great book with a rhyming story for ages 0-11. Dan is in the house bored as all kids are on a snowy day. His mom suggests he build a snowman. "Snowmen aren't great," said Dan. He's also thinking of Bill the boy next door who is his bah him bug person. What he learns and does spans many books and this is the start of the series. Be warned...your child will probably want more. Is that you smiling at your child wanting more books. Yes!!
I found this book on a website for free for an honest review.

I loved this delightful book. I have 9 grandchildren of various ages and I think they all would enjoy it from the youngest, 11 months to the oldest 18. :)
It is bright, colourful, rhyming and will stimulate a child's imagination. I look forward to reading more of these. A great idea for upcoming Christmas.
This is my first read by this author. Well done to both the author and the illustrator!

My Snowman Paul is a lovely story about a young boy who starts to build a snowman but gets put off by being watched by a neighbour who he thinks wouldn't approve of what he is doing.

This is a really lovely story to show the children how you should always be happy to do what you like and not be put off by others. Paul the snowman is a great character as he encourages the little boy to continue what he was enjoying in a fun and approachable way and with him being a snowman it makes it even more fun for the children to see.

The illustrations are great at showing the fun the pair have from when Paul is being created to when they form a new friendship. It is nice to see how the little boy has more confidence when Paul is by his side.

The story is quite short and rhymes which makes it an easy and quick read but one that is enjoyed by all, we would have liked it to be a bit longer. A great story to encourage you to be happy with your own decisions and making friends.
