Mack is sure he can handle winter just like the other animals. But when the temperature drops and he becomes trapped in the ice, his confident WHISTLE! SQUEAK! QUACK! fades to a quiet squeak. Cold, frightened, and all alone, Mack must accept help from some very unexpected new friends.

Guided questions, new vocabulary, and fun activity pages help children explore the story's themes long after the final page.
