Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lily who loved to dress up in cozy, warm winter clothes. One day, she woke up to find that it was snowing outside and she was so excited to put on her favorite sweater, hat, gloves, dress, scarf, coat, cap, and tap her way through the snow.

As she stepped outside, she noticed that all of her winter clothes were missing! She looked around and saw that a mischievous and funny little snowman had stolen them all.

Lily decided to chase after the snowman and retrieve her clothes. She followed him through the snow, tapping her feet as she went. The snowman was surprisingly fast and it was difficult for Lily to keep up, but she was determined.

Finally, she caught up to the snowman and found him dancing in her hat, gloves, and dress. He looked so silly that Lily couldn't help but laugh. The snowman explained that he wanted to try on some new winter clothes and have some fun in the snow, but he didn't have any of his own.

Feeling sorry for the snowman, Lily offered to let him keep her clothes for the day. They had a blast playing in the snow together and even made a new friend.

At the end of the day, the snowman returned Lily's clothes and thanked her for being so kind. From that day on, every time it snowed, the snowman and Lily would play together in the snow and share their winter clothes.

The End.
