A little rabbit can't wait for the snow to leave and spring to arrive in this charming seasonal picture book.
'Mama, what comes after the snow?'
'The spring!' says Mama, smiling.
But Bramble doesn't understand. She has never seen the spring.
Bramble, the littlest rabbit, can't wait for the snow to melt. When spring comes, she'll be big enough to climb the tall tree with her brothers. But snow is all Bramble has ever known.
Hopping from the rabbit family's cozy burrow into the wintry forest where branches dip with the weight of heavy snow, curious little Bramble encounters a very large new friend. Will she recognize the spring when it arrives?
This beautiful picture book celebrates growing up, new experiences and the anticipation of a new season.
