Illustrated by
Gerry Turley.
It's dark and warm in the den while winter descends outside. Northern lights appear, a wolf cries, and a mama bear and two newborn cubs sleep peacefully. The spare rhyming text and illustrations (a combination of drawing and screen printing) follow the cubs through their first year and beautifully evoke the animals' relationship with the earth and with each other.
