When her family's wagon hits a bump, Toby Littlewood is hurled into the sky and lands deep in the snowy forest. There she meets a prickly porcupine, an enormous bear, and a hungry cougar, among others. Cleverly, she talks each one out of eating her by offering up her fancy clothes. In the end during a competition, the vain animals chase each other around and around a maple tree, where they turn into maple syrup. This book is written by Anne Isaacs and illustrated by Mark Teague. It received the 2007 Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Award. Launch date: October 2006.
