Product Description
One of the most magical of all wintertime songs gets an enchanting interpretation including a special recording by the incomparable Kenny Loggins in this charming new picture book. First recorded over sixty years ago, Frosty the Snowman became an instant holiday classic, winning children s hearts and inspiring both an animated film and a long-running television special. Singers such as Gene Autry (the first), the Ronettes, Willie Nelson, and even the Chipmunks have recorded this simple-but-joyful tale of a snowman with a corncob pipe and a button nose who comes to life when a magical top hat is put on his head. To everyone s delight, Frosty laughs, runs, and plays. And even though he melts away once the sun comes out, the song still ends happily, with Frosty waving good-bye and assuring his young friends not to cry because I ll be back again some day. Featuring spectacular art by Wade Zahares, whose Window Music was a New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the Year, and a CD, with the title song and two others Cyndi and Fishin Blues from Kenny Loggins, this sparkling picture book will captivate young readers. It s the perfect gift for under the tree or in a stocking and wonderful for parents and children to share on a chilly winter s night. Just pop in the CD, curl up under a blanket, look at the pictures with their bright holiday colours and the story will work its wonder.
