Summertime with Snowman Paul by Yossi Lapid

 Sometimes children are frustrated, depressed, they think that they can't cope with certain situations, not the best ones to them: school, friends, competitions: life can be hard sometimes. 

It's important to understand that there is always something that we can do to better these personal situations, having fun with family and friends. It's, this one, one of the main thematics of the newest and adorable children's book: Summertime with Snowman Paul


by Yossi Lapid Illustrated by Joanna Pasek Art Direction, Lettering & Design by Richard Bruning. 

This children's book is an encouraging message to everyone, children and after all, adults. 

In this adventure, our cute and sweet Snowman Paul shares with Dan, the kid of the family where he has been built, his biggest worry: oh, summer will be a difficult, difficult season for him. He doesn't adore it. Winter is his favorite time of the year: spring as well, fall presents him beautiful colors and a lot of fruits and fun, but summer...Snowman Paul falls depressed, reading in the newsmagazine also worrying news regarding the warm season dangerously approaching. Plus: he tried several summer activities without any result. Dan is worried, because he can't see Snowman Paul crying desperate: and thinking thinking tells to Snowman Paul his plan for a wonderful summer season: selling ice creams! 

Snowman Paul in that refreshing situation is at his best and really, really enjoy this involvement, admitting at the end with Dan, after a long day of work that maybe summer, thanks to him, is his best season!


The second and most important message that the children's book wants to vehicle, is this one: thanks to our friends, our problems can be successfully resolved.


Extremely cute, sweet, every Snowman Paul's adventure is a joy because of the goodness that Snowman Paul is in grade to transmit to everyone, children and adults.


Highly recommended children's book.


I thank the author for the copy of the book.
