In a snowy place, there was a snowman named Frosty who liked to sleep a lot. Other snowmen played in the snow, but Frosty was always taking a nap. They laughed because he was so sleepy.

One day, Frosty was sleeping when a squirrel named Nutty took his carrot nose. Frosty woke up and didn’t know where his nose went. He had to find it.

Frosty met an owl who told him to look everywhere for his nose. So Frosty went looking. He saw animals who lost things, too, like a bunny who lost her earmuffs and a bear who lost his fish.

Frosty found the squirrel on a hill. Nutty said sorry and gave back the nose. Frosty was happy and learned to stay awake more to have fun with his friends. Frosty smiled because he had good adventures and nice friends.
