SNOWMAN
Jacques Duquennoy, . . Raincoast Books, $14.95 (52pp) ISBN 978-1-55192-411-3
Icicle-crisp colors in a palette of mainly blue, red, beige and green set a frosty scene for this near-wordless picture book with a warm message. Clever detail abounds in the Tintin-esque cartoon panels. Whether fixing breakfast (a fresh bowl of snow) or chilling his slippers before the snow-stoked stove, this hero—who secretly wishes he could fly—is winning in every way. With the help of a little holiday magic, he gets his wish and helps Santa to boot. Ages 2-5.
