Four kittens have never seen the snow. The first three kittens are wary–snow is cold, it’s wet, it covers everything. This unknown thing called snow is a little bit. . . scary. As the seasons pass and winter begins to loom, the three skittish kittens worry. But the fourth kitten takes a different view. The fourth kitten is getting excited.

Copyright, however, is only part of what governs the […]
