The animal kingdom relies on staggering evolutionary innovations to survive winter. Unlike their human counterparts, who alter the environments to accomodate physical limitations, most animals are adapted to an amazing range of conditions.

Beautifully illustrated throughout with the author's delicate drawings and infused by his inexhaustible enchantment with nature, Winter World awakens the wonders and mysteries by which nature sustains herself throuigh winter's harsh, cruel exigencies.
