Frosty the Snowman

In 1997, Barnes & Noble republished this storybook version of Frosty the Snowman, based on the song which was born and became popular in the 1950's.



The illustrations by Corinne Malvern are reminiscent of the Dick & Jane series, and logically so as the original illustrations were pulished in a Little Golden Book version back in the 50's!   The B&N hardcover reissue was timely, as it has special appeal for parents of young children whose first book "friends" were Dick & Jane and who probably read the Little Golden Book version when they themselves were children!
