If you have a little dino lover, you might want to check out Harry and the Bucketful of Dinosaurs — an endearing book about the eponymous boy and the box of toy dinosaurs that he discovered in his grandma’s attic, with a lost-and-found story arc.

  
This popular book has spawned other Harry books and even an animated TV series, so when I chanced upon Harry and the Snow King, I was surprised that it actually predates the Bucketful of Dinosaurs.

  
 The good thing is, they share the same simple but sweet style of storytelling, and Harry and the Snow King is particularly apt for the season — especially for kids who dream of building a little snowman, or Snow King, of their own.
