"Help me with this fort, Squirrel," said Kip.
"Then we'll be safe from snowballs."
Bird laughed. "You two are silly!"
Squirrel and Kip weren't listening.
They got more snow.
They piled it on top of the wall.
Soon the wall was very tall.
"We're safe from snowballs now," said Kip.
The wind blew.
More snow fell on Kip and Squirrel.
"The wall needs to be taller!" cried Squirrel.
Kip and Squirrel got more snow.
But the wind blew again.
"Another snowball hit me!" cried Kip.
"Me too!" cried Squirrel.
Bird sighed.
She flew up to the snowy branches.
Bird shook a branch and . . . Whoomp!
More snow fell on Kip and Squirrel.
Kip and Squirrel looked up.
They saw Bird.
They saw the branches.
And everybody laughed.
