Just when Sunny the squirrel is most missing Milly, her hibernating marmot friend, a snowman comes alive and keeps Sunny company. Before melting he promises to come back next winter so she will have a friend whatever the season, an ending that is a bit too pat. The snowy illustrations, showing Sunny in snappy striped outfits, are easy on the eye.
