Description
When Little Snow's mother makes him a fluffy new bed for the long cold winter, she tells him this bed is for sleeping, not jumping. But, as Snow is tucked into his bouncy new bed, he can't resist opening his eyes as Mommy's footsteps fade away. Snow thump, thump, thumps on his new bed and watches in delight as tiny feathers flutter down like the first snow.
From the award-winning author Grace Lin, this cosy follow-up to the highly acclaimed A Big Mooncake for Little Star is sure to dazzle readers and become a bedtime favourite.
