The first snow

The winter is very mild this year, there is no snow, no frost, the temperature is above zero. The children are sad, because it is the winter break and they would like to play outside. Every day they wake up and go to the window to see the snow. But there is nothing…

And one day it is finally snowing in Gruntland! There is not much snow, but enough to play and make snow…pigs.

All the children from the village run outside after breakfast. They are throwing the snowballs, wallowing in the snow and sledging. They are having great fun!

Imp and Elvy make away. They decide to build a snowpig.

When it is ready they find the red hips to make the eyes. The pig looks scary but they like it.

Then they go for a walk and see a snowman built by humans. They climb it and feel like mountaineers.

When they come back to their snowpig they see it has got green eyes. How come? Suddenly they hear a giggle. Other pigs jump out of a bush. They played a trick on Imp and Elvy and changed the hips to acorns.
