The last day of fall is a good occasion for the forest animals to organize a race. With the icy cold of winter breathing down their necks, the participants pedal and roll towards the finish line and their winter shelters, helping one another out along the way.
The Last Day of Autumn
The autumn leaves are splendid – yellow, red and brown – but winter’s on its way. The forest animals are making final preparations for an unusual race. Winter is announced by the chinking of ice and the start signal sounds for hare, fox, beaver, bear and co. Riding on delicately drawn, self-made vehicles, they help each other pedal towards the finish line, and their cozy winter shelters.
