About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is spiraling into frustration because their project, drawing, or tower doesn't look exactly like the image in their head. It is a perfect tool for navigating the high-stakes world of childhood perfectionism and the inevitable gap between a big imagination and physical reality. The story follows a young boy with grand plans to build the best snowman ever, only to encounter the messy, slushy, and uncooperative nature of real snow. As his dream of a masterpiece shifts into a series of happy accidents, he learns that 'perfection' is a moving target and that the joy of creation is found in the doing, not just the result. For children ages 3 to 7, this is a comforting reminder that even when things go wrong, they can still be exactly right.
