Ten animal biographies set in the pine barrens, forests and coasts of America: a black bear waking from its winter sleep, a chipmunk facing the weasel that is the demon of his tribe, birds of the high sky and a sea otter at home in the surf. Each story follows a single creature through the dangers of a season.
