In the snowy mountains of Norway, a young reindeer named Aurora loves to race the winter wind. But when a swirling storm rolls in and Aurora wanders too far from her herd, she must learn to listen closely—to the wind, to her clicking hooves, and to the quiet clues that guide her safely home.

Just in time for the holidays, join Carie, Lincoln, and Eliza as they stomp, click, and wiggle into the winter world of reindeer, the hoof-clicking, herd-loving travelers of the Arctic.  

Kids will discover:

• Why reindeer ankles really do click as they walk
• How hollow fur works like tiny built-in thermos bottles
• Why both boys and girls grow antlers
• And how herds help reindeer survive blizzards, long migrations, and the deep Arctic night
