Beloved children´s author Michael Morpurgo has re-imagined Raymond Briggs´ classic The Snowman for a new generation of readers.
One December morning, James is thrilled to wake up to see snow falling.
He spends the whole day making his perfect snowman; he has coal eyes, an old green hat and scarf and a tangerine nose... just like the snowman from his favourite story.
That night, something magical happens- the Snowman comes to life!
He and James take to the skies on a magical adventure where they meet someone very special.
Inspired by the timeless tale, Michael Morpurgo and Robin Shaw have created the perfect Christmas story for the whole family.
In Raymond Briggs´ story, a boy´s dream comes true. Somehow, Michael Morpurgo makes Briggs´ story come true. It´s a delightful magic track. It has all the wonder of reading the Snowman for the first time. Colin Firth
