Publisher's Synopsis
Jim is overjoyed when, one morning, he wakes to find that the cold, damp, grey weather has been replaced by the brightness of snow.

In the process he makes friends with a lonely old man who lives nearby.;Kathy Henderson's previous books include "Sam and the Machines" (one of "Parent's" magazine's Best Book for Babies), "15 Ways to go to Bed' (shortlisted for the Smarties Book Prize), "In the Middle of the Night", "Second-Time Charley" and "Pappy Mashy".;Paul Howard has illustrated two "Codling Village" stories by Susan Hill, "Friends Next Door" and "A Very Special Birthday".
