Children love this whimsical view of the mountain machines that run a ski resort!

The vibrant illustrations of gondolas, groomers, bull wheels and pipe dragon--each with a personality of its own--delight young ones fascinated by snow and winter activities. Marty Marmot observes the fun as readers count down and name the machines cavorting in the snow.

This is a lively book for little ones to learn numbers and new vocabulary, as well as for anyone who enjoys snow, snow sports, winter or machines.
