Wild Lily and Hula went up and down mountains and crossed frozen rivers. One day, they saw something green - plants. The snow stopped. As they moved south, it got warmer and warmer. After weeks and weeks of travelling, Wild Lily didn't need her blanket or her thick clothes any more.

 

 

Soon they were home. Wild Lily went upstairs and sat down. She looked at her book again. She looked at the picture and showed it to Hula. He was smiling.
