Description
The epic game begins!
That night, as agreed, the two children ask the moon: "Please let our snowpals play soccer." Then each child adds a secret wish upon the stars: "I wish that my snowpal wins the soccer match!"
After the storm and after the children build snowmen comes a whimsical tale. In the light of moon and stars, the snowpals come to life to play an epic game of soccer. A story of joy and the delight of play for all children. A primer in sportsmanship in English and French, this analogue book, illustrated with stitch and seam, harkens back to an era before the uniformity of computer generated illustrations.
