Rabbit and the snowman

The tale begins in winter when a group of children bring gathered treasures to create a snowman in the woods - carrot nose, charcoal eyes and mouth, branches for arms, and tattered scarf and hat. But once the snowman is finished, the children move onto other winter adventures, leaving the snowman alone. Wondering why the children don't return, the snowman begins to question why - is it his skinny arms, his crooked carrot nose, etc.? But his lonely sadness soon disappears when a little rabbit appears and the two become fast friends. In time winter passes and with spring the snowman melts, leaving the little rabbit to question his own appearance and superficial values as the reason for the snowman's exit. Spring blends to summer and summer to fall and fall to winter And with winter's arrival, once again the snowman is recreated and the bond of friendship between the rabbit and the snowman is restored - with a little faith in the durability of friendship despite apparent obstacles.
