Raymond Briggs's charming Christmas story about the adventures of a boy and the snowman that comes to life is a modern children's classic. The tales popularity has been further enhanced by frequent television broadcasts of the award-winning cartoon film The Snowman.

In this music booklet of the classic theme song 'Walking In The Air' for Trumpet or Cornet in B Flat and Piano, composer Howard Blake recreates the story in music based on the scenes from the film.
