Day 10 of our 12 days of Christmas competition: Win a bundle of The Snowman goodies worth £100
To celebrate 40 years of Raymond Briggs’ The Snowman, we’re giving away this gorgeous bundle of Snowman goodies.
The prize includes a commemorative coloured silver proof 50 pence coin featuring The Snowman and James in the iconic flying scene from The Royal Mint, a collector’s edition soft plush Snowman toy and a copy of The Snowman by Michael Morpurgo who has re-imagined this magical story as a chapter book for middle-grade readers.
The Snowman was created and illustrated by Raymond Briggs as a picture book, narrated entirely through hand-drawn illustrations and was first published in 1978. The book tells the magical story of a boy whose snowman comes to life. It perfectly captures the wonder and innocence of childhood and has become a classic and a fundamental Christmas institution, loved by generations of children.
Now one of the world’s most popular picture books, The Snowman has sold in excess of 5.5 million copies globally and has been translated into 15 languages. The Snowman was adapted for screen by producer John Coates and was first broadcast on Channel 4’s inaugural year in 1982. The Oscar-nominated animation has been broadcast every Christmas since and has become a much-loved festive family tradition.
