Different animals visit a snowman throughout the winter.

[Alicia Evans · Rating 2 out of 5]

For: readers looking for a book about winter animals with real photography instead of illustrations.

Possible red flags: some may find it too simple; the winter friends turn on their snowman friend and eat his face, which will be traumatic for some .

In this little board book is the story of a snowman and the animals it nurtures, such as with seed on its hat for the birds. Illustrations are with beautiful photos.

Winter Friends is a delightful little board book that introduces young babies through toddlers to familiar backyard winter animals as they explore their new friend, a smiling snowman. The book’s beautiful nature photographs bring these winter friends up close and personal for young readers. The book is short enough to hold the attention of the youngest babies, and the photography and simple text will appeal to babies through toddlers.

Conrad got this straightforward, charming book from his Grandmother for his first winter holiday. The photos are engaging, realistic and clean. It has Northeast USA critters we are familiar with nibbling treats off of snowmen. It is a nice, easy to replicate idea to attract backyard winter visitors and it was refreshing not to read another animal book about "Yackowicz the Wacky Yak in Adventure Party Land Lift the Flap Activity Touch and Feel Book!"
