How Snow Globe was born

In the winterish of 2018, I was and still am working at Calderstones Park as a Story Hunter and for Christmas they wanted to put in a Grotto. Santa needed some elves so naturally I put myself forward. Each elf had to have a back story, and in keeping with the weather Snow Globe popped in to my head as if it had already been there. The idea being that I (Snow Globe) used to live in a snow globe but one day it smashed and now I help Santa in his Grotto. The story captivated the imaginations of children, which got me thinking that I could not just leave him, I wanted to bring him to 'life' and let other people enjoy his story. Since then he was always at the for front of my mind. It was then I decided I wanted to write a children's book.

Snow Globe ready for Christmas joy!

I had the idea, but I knew I needed some help, and that's where Sam came in.

! had written different versions of Snow Globe, it was a tough decision how to write it. I toyed with the idea of it being just a story but then I wanted it to be a poem.
