    About this ebook

    This is the first of a series of four books about Fluffy the rabbit and his friends. The books are set on a Welsh farm and they follow Fluffy’s adventures through the year as the seasons come and go. Each book highlights a different season on the farm. In this beautifully illustrated story Fluffy becomes lost in the snow, but luckily, he is found and befriended by Tiddles the farm cat. Fluffy is welcomed into the farmhouse by Mr and Mrs Evans, the farmer and his wife, and he shares the fireside warmth with his new friend. Together, Fluffy and Tiddles explore the farm and meet some very interesting characters.

      Winter Down on the Farm - Elaine Rogers

      Chapter One

      Tiddles the cat stretched herself and yawned sleepily. She left the warmth of her comfortable hayloft and wandered outside into the bright morning sunshine. She made her way to the duck pond to talk to her friend Sarah Duck. There she found Sarah swimming along on the cool pond all alone.

      Hello, Sarah, said Tiddles. I wish I could keep as cool as you by swimming as you do.

      Well, come on in, then. The water’s lovely today, replied Sarah. Oh, I forgot, you don’t like to get your fur wet, do you?

Up she got, unaware of what she would find as she opened the cat flap in the barn door. As she looked outside at the white world, she saw a tiny rabbit half buried in the snow. All that Tiddles could see of the little rabbit were two tiny ears sticking up out of the snow and a fluffy tail that looked like a cotton-wool ball.

      She crept carefully forward into the white powdered stuff she had heard the humans at the farm call snow, hating the fact that it was cold and wet to her paws and legs. As she got nearer to the small bundle in the snow, she could see that it was not moving at all. She put her nose into the snow to touch the little bundle. The little creature stirred and tried to get up, but seemed to be too weak to do so. Tiddles knew she had to get help from the farmer’s
