What made the Snowman Smile?

It was Christmas Eve and snowing heavily. The whole village was getting ready for Christmas Day. Susie and Dave had built the most magnificent snowman in their yard. He had two buttons for his eyes and Grandpa's old hat.

Later, the children took their sled and headed for the hillside. They had seen their school friends sliding down the hill and longed to join in the fun. The snowman felt sad being left all alone.

It grew dark and the children were called indoors for dinner and bed. The snowman almost cried because he was so lonely. "What's wrong?" asked the a little robin, perched on some logs. "I'm all alone," said the snowman. "There's no one to play with."

The robin was a kind little bird, and in no time he gathered all his friends together to keep the snowman company. They sang carols and played games throughout the night. The snowman had a wonderful time with his new friends.

Christmas morning arrived and the snowman watched Susie and Dave put their scarves on as they came out of the house. "I wonder where they're going?" he thought. The children rushed over to him, holding a present - they hadn't forgotten him after all!

The snowman smiled happily - what a Merry Christmas!!!
