The Snowman



The Snowman is the title deuteragonist of the 1978 book, it's 1982 film adaption of the same name and it's 2012 sequel The Snowman and The Snowdog. He was made by a young boy named James one snowy Christmas Eve and on the stroke of midnight, he magically came to life and James brought him into his house and showed him around it such as the living room where the snowman went over to the fireplace but moved away from it as he was starting to melt from the heat. He along with James then went into the kitchen and he tried on pieces of fruit for noses before he and James went upstairs to James's bedroom and later his parents where the snowman tried on some of the clothes. The duo then went out into the back garden where they ride on James's father's motorbike and when they returned, the snowman took James's hand and they flew into the sky. They then arrived at the North Pole where a party attended by other snowmen is happening and whilst there the duo meet Father Christmas who gives James a scarf as a present. Just as the sun is rising, the snowman and James leave and arrive back home where they give each other a hug before James goes back into his home and into his bed. In the morning, James goes back outside to see the snowman only to find that he has melted.
