Winter Animals Books for Preschoolers

"Winter's almost here!" says Little Owl, as he observes leaves falling, animal friends hibernating, and a chill from his feathers to his feet.

And just as he and his friend Racoon are watching their breath make fog in the cold air, it happens: Snow!

Cozy is the softest musk ox in Alaska, with the warmest fur you ever did feel.

When a storm hits while he's separated from his family, he starts to feel lonely—but not for long.

As the snow piles up, animals start to notice just how warm and cozy Cozy really is!

When Aloo-ki glances up from fishing and sees her sled dogs floating off on an ice floe, she races after them.

She comes upon an igloo with no one home and goes inside.

Turns out the polar bear family who lives there is out walking while their breakfast cools off.

Aloo-ki eats some soup, tries on their boots, and finally crawls into the smallest bed for a nap.

Meanwhile, Papa, Mama, and Baby Bear see her dogs adrift, swim out to rescue them and return home to find Aloo-ki fast asleep in Baby Bear's bed.

One by one, a whole host of different animals and birds find their way out of the cold and into Bear's cave to warm up.

But even after the tea has been brewed and the corn has been popped, Bear just snores on!

See what happens when he finally wakes up and finds his cave full of uninvited guests -- all of them having a party without him!

He only wants to fit in. When one young penguin realizes his hair is all the wrong colors, how far will he go to stop the stares?

Spike the Penguin wishes he wasn’t different. Even though his parents tell him his bright red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple mohawk is beautiful, he still wants to hide his head under his flippers.

Determined to find a way to be like everyone else, the sad little guy sets out on an Antarctic adventure!

Toddlers can learn all about the lives of Arctic animals with easy-to-understand facts about how these incredible animals eat, sleep, camouflage, and stay warm in such a cold environment.

Do you ever wonder how animals stay warm in the winter? Well they wonder how humans do too!

In a twist of perspective, wild creatures question if humans use the same winter adaptation strategies that they do. Do they cuddle together in a tree or fly south to Mexico?

Take a look through an animal's eyes and discover the interesting ways that animals cope with the cold winter months throughout this rhythmic story.
