Flip's Snowman

by Petr Horáček

Let it snow! Through cleverly positioned die-cut windows, little readers can watch Flip the penguin build a snowman - then pull a tab to make it snow so he can start another.

Good morning, Flip!
What’s the weather like today?

In a wintry follow-up to FLIP'S DAY, Petr Horácek brings his bold palette and quirky style to the fun of building a snowman. The perky penguin sets out with a helpful bird to do the job, armed with a carrot, a pot, and some pieces of coal. All goes well until the sun comes out, which is not good news for Flip’s snowy friend! Little ones will love to lend a hand by pulling a tab - and making it snow once again.
