A guy, a husky dog, and a snowman... what a rare combination!
Alwyn is a little lonely in his tiny house in the northern part of the country. Snow is everywhere, and he is bored out of his mind. His only buddy, Timber, a husky dog, keeps him company. But he still wants something else, someone to talk to or play with in a different way. That's why Alwyn builds a snowman and makes it come alive. With a pumpkin on its head, the snowman leads him into dangerous places, and with his snowball-throwing skills, he is a handy colleague on a life-threatening journey. Read about skeletons, ghosts, a snowman and other mystical creatures in this action-packed adventure.
