Lots of animals large and small make their winter homes in the snow. Kate Messner, a school teacher who lives on Lake Champlain, wrote this story about a day skiing in the woods where these creatures live. Christopher Silas Neal, a Brooklyn artist, illustrated the book.
You can learn more about these animals from the Hinterland Who's Who and the University of Michigan's Museum of Zoology.
This is one of the ten titles nominated for the 2013 Ladybug Picture Book Award.
