      Author

      By Laura Sulentich Fredrickson, Illustrated by Laurie Caple

      Summary

      In late December, snow blankets the landscape and the daylight hours are brief. Bundled up against the cold, a child and an adult explore the slough, a marshy area along the river where many animals live, hunt, or play. The scene is quiet, yet alive with activity—if you know where to look.
