The delightful story of a finicky polar bear who learns that having friends and fun is more important than things being "just so."

Willow is a polar bear who likes things just so. She even irons her underwear and tidies her teacher! So when a storm covers her backyard in a smooth blanket of snow, she's determined to keep it that way--in spite of all the other kids creating a lumpy, bumpy mess. Will Willow realize that being particular is making her miss out on all the fun?
