This was a short story about 2 snowbirds created during an ice sculpture contest in Japan. One was made by a boy and his family - carefully crafted with cooperation and love. The other was made by a boy who tried to ruin the first one, stole the idea, and was then selfish. After the sculptures were done Jack Frost arrived and wanted to take one to the Snow King as a companion but couldn't decide. He had them both travel together as a test to see which would be the better companion.
In theory it was a good story. It was weird how it was so focused on the competition the first 20 pages or so and then completely shifted to the Snow King. While there was some development between the 2 birds it just felt like something was missing and the book as a whole didn't really work for me.
