A sweet-natured picture book that simply and poetically depicts nature reawakening after winter.

A bear's footprints in the snow, a hole in the ice, an igloo, a reindeer, an arctic hare... So many silent signs of life in winter.
Then the sun comes out, higher in the sky with each passing day, snow melts, animals come out of hibernation. It’s springtime. Nature is waking up.
Delicately, wordlessly, Hector Dexet depicts this evolution in images from silent stretches of snow to bright colors and the rustling of spring.
Cutaway pages give more and more space to the sun as the landscape changes.
