Children will love following footprints (and pawprints!) to discover snowy adventures in this charming wordless picture book from a USBBY-honored illustrator.

On a snowy winter's morning, footprints trace a path from an unmade bed, past discarded clothes and breakfast dishes to the front door where they're joined by excited pawprints. But who is making the footprints and what are they doing?

Children and grown-ups will enjoy poring over the detailed, playful, vintage illustrations in this unique wordless picture book, finding clues to reveal the story of a winter's day.

Gerda Muller is an acclaimed children's author and illustrator. Her best-known books in English include reimagined classic tales (The Musicians of Bremen and The Sorcerer's Apprentice); the wordless Seasons board books, and picture books (How Does My Garden Grow? and A Year in Our New Garden -- a USBBY Outstanding International Book).

'A mix of on-the-go footprints tell a quietly adventuresome story across a captivating winter landscape... Muller's conceit ably succeeds without figures or words, lending an air of mystery to a season-specific outing.' —Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW
'Humor and imagination have free reign in this cozy and engrossing book.' —The Horn Book

'The throwback art is marked by absences that become representative of memories from a full, cozy winter's day.' —Foreword Reviews
