    About this ebook

    Who would think a snowman would have something to give back?
    Snows in Oklahoma can sometimes do things one wouldnt expect, and when a group of girls teamed up on a Christmas project, an unusual Christmas Snow occurred. Just in time.
    Mr. Okie Snow was born in a day and he lived for almost a week, but during his lifetime he had a wonderful surprise for the girls that made him. Sometimes the best surprises are those that are unexpected, and who would expect a surprise from a Snowman with green hair and orange lips wearing a glove and a mitten. And standing on two legs instead of a fat belly? And, of course, he would be wearing shoes. .

    Author

    Joann Ellen Sisco

    The author has published a number of adult historical fiction books but finds a unique pleasure in creating juveniles designed for little girls. It was fun to relive the real and imagined pleasure of her own childhood with native animals and the woodland's great climbing trees...along with sketching remembered scenes. Toss in a couple dozen "cousins" visiting for the summer, stir in a voracious reader in the form of her great-granddaughter, Madison Ann, and you have a perfect formula for fun. Eight year old Madison is busily accumulating her own ideas and skills, and could there someday be a twin to the adventures of the Wildwood Village Summer?
