Oakwood Advent Books 2019: 1st December - The Snowman

This year, at Oakwood, we will once again be having an Advent of books in the countdown to Christmas. Each day at school we will be sharing a Christmas/Winter themed book (or part of a longer book) with all of our children. On Saturday and Sunday we will also be sharing books via video here on our blog and through our Twitter feed.

As well as providing the children with an exciting opportunity to share a book everyday with their teachers and friends, they will help children reflect on a wide range of themes that affect people all over the world during the Christmas holidays.

We will let you know each day what the day's book is and hope that you join in at home to share the joy of reading.

Today's book has no words but is one every adult will be familiar with... The Snowman by Raymond Briggs.
