The Christmas Snowman

Sammy was a handsome new snowman. He had button eyes, a carrot nose, and a Bowler hat. But Sammy didn´t want to be an ordinary snowman. He wanted to be Christmas snowman. "A Christmas snowman?" said Squeaky Squirrel, as he jumped off a branch to say hello. "Now that would be something special." "Very special," said Corky Crow. He swooped low, and landed on Sammy´s shoulder. "But how can you be a christmas snowman?" "Well," said Sammy, "first I´ll need some decorations. You do lots of travelling, crow. Have you seen something i can use?" Corky Crow thought a minute, then took off  for his favourite spot, the dump. On a pile of rubbish he saw a wreath that looked like new. Carrying it back in his beak, he dropped it over Sammys head. "Thank you," said Sammy. "This looks fine around my neck. Now what about you, Squirrel? Do you have anything i can use?" Squeaky Squirrel trhought for a minute, then scurried back to his hidey-hole in the tree. From deep inside hepulled out a big red bow he´d found on the ground. "Here you are snowman," he said. He tucked the ribbon on Sammys hat. "Beautiful," said Sammy, as they fastened it on his chest. "Thank you friends. do i like a Christmas snowman now?" "Oh yes," shouted squeaky squirrel.

Sammy thought about it. Then he had an idea. "Come here Corky Crow," he said. He whispered into Corkys ear. With a flap and a flutter of his wings, Corky flew off. He found some children racing downhill on their sledges. Swooping low, he grabbed a mitten someone left on the ground. "Come back, Crow," The children yelled. They grabbed their sledges and followed to where the snowmann stood. "Someone decorated the snowmann!" They stood admiring Sammy. "Doesn´t he make you feel good?" Said the childfren. "A real Christmas snowman!" Joining hands, they danced all around Sammy. At night when everyone slept, Sammy stood in the moonlight. He felt a lovely glow inside. His friends helped make his fream come true. He couldnt be happier. He was a Christmas snowmann......
