While in England there's been a great snowman murder mystery unfolding which has taken up much of my time. Click here for all the relevant facts regarding the case.

The Last Snowman in London

Snowmen Abroad

From China and a website called China Smack are unusual snow sculptures (warning; contains adult content).

Today's Snowman is in London now making snowmen and conducting snowmen business. In other news I was just interviewed by Nrc Next, Holland's most respected newspaper, as the world's snowman expert.

The book, The History of the Snowman was included in Newsweek and mentioned on Good Morning America Christmas day. Plus, there's a story today in TimeOut Kids NY.

The Museum of Modern Art has just informed us they found the lost 1908 silent movie The Snowman. We will be screening it soon and hope to include it in The History of the Snowman movie.

For those of you who wanted to participate in Today's Snowman Snowman Contest please submit your submissions to snowmanexpert@pipeline.com and they will be included in February! Thank you.

First Snowmen of 2010

Deep regrets to those who had hoped to participate in Today's Snowman snowman contest–due to sudden illness I, unfortunately, had to cut back on some of the site's activities but will be running on full cylinders when my health returns.

In meantime, there are a lot of great new and old snowmen to enjoy here and you'll want to want to explore the recent past posts. New snowmen will continue to be posted starting with this group and want to send a special thanks to Ellen Usery for these today.
