Summary: Disappointing
Review: Although my 3-year-old daughter loves the original "Rolie Polie Olie" book and the drawings in this one are just as lovely. overall I was disappointed. Especially since the nice rhymes are missing. And the story is a little hard to follow.

Summary: Help Mr. Snowie!
Review: If you have a kid that is 5 or 6 this is the book for him or her.
They would like how the sun burns out and if your child has an imagination then its perfect. I liked it because it proves that the author has a really good imagination.

Summary: Rolie Polie Playful!!!!
Review: My 2 year old son loves anything with Rolie Polie Olie. William Joyce's hardbound picture books are the best of the collection. The other board books are cute, and tough, but the picture books truly show off the great technique used to illustrate the books. This one uses fun language as well, and a friendship message to tell the story. I love the way names of things are changed, like "Klanky Klaus" for Santa... it makes reading these books aloud a lot of fun. I highly recommend Sleepytime Olie and the original Rolie Polie Olie picture books as well.

Summary: Not as good as the first
Review: My kids love Rolie Polie Olie and the first book is a household favorite and when I saw Snowie Rolie right before Christmas I just had to get it. I didn't read it until later, after my daughter had opened it. The illustrations are as charming as ever and the plot is cute enough but the text is definitely lacking. There is no rhyme, no flow, no beat. It just is not enjoyable to read, if it didn't have such great illustrations it would be a total loss. Sigh. Please tell Mr. Joyce we want the rhymes back!

Summary: Lovely illustrations, fine brief story
Review: The aesthetics of Rolie Polie Olie are captured wonderfully in this new book, which was obviously meticulously executed from drawing board through press. The artwork leaps off the page. The story is pleasant enough (passable), and brief. The language is fun to read, and distinctive. A nice new book.

Summary: A Fun Book For Children
Review: The book "Snowie Rolie" by William Joyce is a very creative book for children. It sets there imagination off. The set is very aesthetic setting with cute characters. The rhyming and fun use of words, I think, captures the childrens attention and makes them like the book even more. I didnt have Rolie Polie Olie as a kid but my niece loves it. I think its a wonderful book for children.
