As autumn fades and winter draws near, the woodland grows quieter day by day. Beneath fallen leaves, inside hollow trees, and in secret places hidden from sight, animals prepare for the season ahead.

Follow a dormouse, red squirrel, hedgehog, long-eared bat, and brown-lipped snail on a journey through a world touched by frost and snowfall. As the days grow shorter and colder, each animal must find the perfect place to settle down for a long winter rest.

Lovingly told in verse by Jess Lynch and beautifully illustrated by Monika Pollak, A Snowy Sleep – A Tale of Hibernation is a cosy celebration of nature's rhythms and the quiet wonder of the winter months.
