    In the heart of winter, a charming snowman stood in a snowy field, his coal eyes gleaming, and his carrot nose shining orange against the white snow.

    Every day, children would visit the snowman, their faces full of joy as they played around him, their laughter echoing across the field.

    One morning, the children found the snowman standing alone in the field, his orange carrot nose missing.

    The children were sad and decided to go on a mission to find the snowman's missing nose.

    They searched the snowy woods, their boots crunching in the snow, their breaths visible in the cold air.

    Despite their efforts, they couldn't find the missing nose. They felt disappointed but decided not to give up.

    They returned to the snowy field, the snowman standing alone in the cold. They approached him with the new carrot nose.

    With a little effort, they fit the new carrot nose onto the snowman. They stepped back and admired their work.
