A companion title for the best-selling picture book, Scary Night, that takes us to the North Pole as three friends, Hare, Cat and Pig, set out on a journey.
Once upon a snowy day, three friends set out on a journey.
Hare with a honey pot, Cat with a candy cane, Pig with a plum pudding.
But where were they going that snowy day, out in the cold so far away
It was a mystery!
