Product Description

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Grade 2 Thomas refuses to wear his new brown snowsuit: "If you think I am going to wear that ugly snowsuit you are crazy!" He reinforces this statement with a resounding "NNNNNO" when his mother insists he don the suit. His mother jumps up and down, and they have an enormous fight. This behavior is repeated with Thomas' teacher and the school principal. In the process of a fight, Thomas and his teacher end up in their underwear. Thomas never suffers any ill-consequences for his rude behavior; he looks on with a smirk as his mother, teacher and principal are made to look foolish. In the end the principal retires to Arizona "where nobody ever wears a snowsuit." Thomas comes off as a manipulating, rude little brat. Audiences may chuckle over the cartoon-like illustrations; they are bright and colorful, and do fit the story. However, this is one Canadian import that should be left north of the border. Evelyn Homan, Lexington Public Library District, Ill.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thomas' Snowsuit Jun 27 2000
Format:Library Binding
This is a GREAT book for reading to kids, with kids, and by kids! The hilarious storyline and repetitive nature keep even the most reluctant reader interested. It's a "laugh till your belly hurts" book!

1.0 out of 5 stars Small Books Dec 11 2012
By Danny
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I believe that they should put in the title of their product that these books are very small. Like smaller than the palm of your hand. They do advise the dimensions of the books in small print but I measure blinds, not books. I feel that they are not disclosing properly that these are not regular size books.

3.0 out of 5 stars One SMALL complaint Feb 22 2012
Format:Paperback
When purchasing this book, I assumed I was getting a full sized book. Unfortunately this was not the case. What I received was a miniature book about the size of the palm of my hand. No matter, my two year old loved it non the less.

I love this book and always have, but beware! It's mini. Unfortunately, I returned mine and ordered some larger sized Robert Munsch books instead.

This book is about 3 inches by 3 inches - unlike the one I bought which was advertised right beside it and they were the same size in the picture. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Small!
I had no idea it was going to be so small. The image looked like an average-sized book. There should definitely be a more clear mentioning of the size. Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars too small
Beware, read the dimensions so you are not left with a tiny book. This is a paperback as it says but a very tiny paperback - thus the small price. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun
This book is simply good fun with something we are all familiar with. In this case it is trying to get a small boy to wear a yucky, confining snowsuit. Read more
