Under snowing weather, a snowman gains a heart and comes to life. The cheerful snowman starts enjoying life, though he suffers a few misadventures. While exploring a human house, he learns how to use a calendar. He learns that it is January. He wants to experience July, and enters a refrigerator to wait. When July arrives, the Snowman exits the refrigerator, and celebrates. The warm weather eventually melts him down. He sings as he dies. A rabbit mourns his death, but takes the snowman's carrot to use as food. Written by Dimos I |
