Age range 3 to 6

Left alone when his friends hibernate, Nico the fox makes a friend from snow and befriends a real snow fox in the process.

The Snow Fox tells the charming tale of Nico, a little red fox who spends spring, summer, and autumn with his three friends, Ava, Olive, and Linus. As winter arrives and his woodland friends go into hibernation, Nico finds himself all alone in a snowy wonderland. Despite his efforts, he can’t find a companion to share the long winter. In an attempt to pass the time, Nico builds a fox out of snow. Little does he know, he's about to befriend a real snow fox. This delightful story highlights the importance of cherishing old friendships, staying perseverant, and welcoming new friends.
