There is a gentle slope in their garden, and Boo dragged the sledge to the top. "Right!" he declared. "Who wants to ride down with me?"
Everybody's paws went up, but Custard's was first, so he and Boo got on the sledge, and with a gentle push from Scary, they sped down the slope, their scarves trailing out behind them.
"Wheeeeeeee!" they shrieked all the way down. "That was great fun!" they said when they reached the bottom. "Does anyone else want a turn?"
Again, everybody's paws were in the air, and so they all took it in turns to have a go on the sledge. It was a little bit small for Scary to sit on, even on his own, but he said he was just as happy pulling the sledge up the slope for everyone else.
While they queued for the sledge, Harry suggested that they could possibly build a snowman while they waited. They all thought this was a great idea! Some of them piled up snow into 2 round balls. Then they set the smaller ball on top of the bigger ball for the snowman's head and body. The rest of them rushed about finding things to use for the snowman's eyes, nose and mouth.
