"The Snowman Who Wants to Swim" by Rie Kubo A snowman suddenly starts talking, saying, "I want to go swimming." When his tears fall to the ground, the surroundings transform into a summer sea... A dream-filled fantasy with a refreshing sea as the backdrop. Some staining on the outside. The book was a favorite and read often, so the inside has also discolored (yellowing). I believe this is a rare picture book that is not often seen.
