About This Book

Three illustrated winter tales follow an elderly rabbit gentleman and his animal friends through humorous seasonal mishaps. In the first story a car becomes an auto-sled stuck on an icy hill until a porcupine’s quills are lashed to the wheels to gain traction and escape two prowling rogues. The second recounts the rabbit’s errands and a snow pudding episode involving playful piglet helpers. The third describes games and misadventures around a snow fort. Cooperative problem solving, gentle peril, and comic inventions drive brief episodic adventures aimed at young readers.
