Since I get a lot of hits here for Snowman, there was a comment on the Snowman post today that this book is available right now on ebay. I don’t usually link to ebay auctions, but this is a very rare and hard to find book.
Book – Snowman by Tony Palazzo – eBay (item 250231854982 end time Apr-05-08 12:24:00 PDT)
The story of SNOWMAN the Cinderella horse!
1962 Edition by Tony Palazzo. Fantastic book about the true story of Snowman a plow horse saved from slaughter by Harry deLeyer. Snowman became a jumping star with Harry in the irons.
This was a library book and has a blue dot taped on the spine. The book is in good condtion. No writing on the pages and the hard cover is a little dirty and the corners frayed a little. Also there is a very faint light pink stain about an inch across on the back cover. Great and hard to find book!

I’ve been looking for this book
Many people are looking for this book! I’ve only ever seen one copy on ebay — never found it anywhere else, although there must still be copies floating around… someone needs to republish it, I think!
Hello! I am glad that there are other adults out there who still remember this book! Any horse lover would emember having read it, for sure. I was a horse fanatic as a girl, and used to check this book out of our school library about every other week! I decided I would like to have a copy for my own bookshelf….only to find that it is nearly an impossibility! I will keep searching til I find one some day.
Just for Christmas – this book is available 🙂
