My mom shared this book with me a few years ago. It's great for working on verbs!

Ideas for completing the sentence:
- If I were a snowman at night I would...
- My snowman would....

Great ideas to have the students act out being a snowman and make it a game, it can even involve following directions!!!
I wanted to go through the book and pull out vocabulary to target. I made these into flash cards and quizzed the students after.
