Originally created by Raymond Briggs, The Snowman was first published as a wordless picture book in 1978. Beautifully illustrated with only pencil crayons, the story follows a boy, James, who builds a snowman in his garden on Christmas Eve. That night, an unforgettable adventure begins when The Snowman comes to life.

On 26 December 1982, the animated version of The Snowman premiered on Channel 4. Capturing the magic of Christmas, the enchanting film was a huge success and garnered global acclaim. It has been broadcast at Christmas every year since.
