Nell is told by her BIG sisters and her mother that she is too small to help out, but everyone, including Nell, feels differently after her forest friends give her the confidence to build a large snowman.

A rhyming tale about a lady who swallows snow, a pipe, coal, a hat, a stick and a scarf to a surprise purpose.

Colorful illustrations and simple text explain how snowflakes are formed from ice crystals that fall from the clouds and describe sleet, snowstorms, blizzards, and ways people have fun with snow.

During recess, Scott, who likes to make snowmen, and Jim, who is good at building forts, work with the rest of the children to create a snow surprise after a heavy snowfall.
