What happens when a snowman from Wisconsin decides he needs a beach vacation? Meet Floyd, a kindhearted, slightly anxious snowman who has had enough of gray skies and endless Februarys. When he dreams of warm sand, ocean waves, and someplace called Corpus Christi, he does the impossible-he starts walking south. Along the way, Floyd teams up with Lulu, a sharp-witted college student who agrees to help him reach Texas, even though he's made of snow and she has common sense. Their road trip is filled with airports that refuse to cooperate, gas stations that freeze unexpectedly, confused Southerners seeing snow for the first time, and one very life-changing stop at Whataburger. Through laughter, mishaps, and a little magic, Floyd discovers that sometimes chasing a dream doesn't mean losing who you are-it means finding where you belong. Corpus Christi Snow is a heartwarming, laugh-out-loud middle-grade novella about friendship, bravery, and the courage to step outside your comfort zone... even if your comfort zone is literally below freezing.
