The story.
Told entirely through illustrations with no words, a little boy builds a snowman that magically comes to life during the night. Together they explore the boy's house, share a meal, and then fly through the starlit sky over the countryside in a dreamlike adventure that ends with the bittersweet arrival of morning.
