Grab your skis, check your gear, and get ready for the ultimate winter adventure!

"It's the New Year, and ski season is here!". In Up then Down! A Ski Tour from Town, young readers are invited to clip into their bindings and explore the magic of the mountains with a fun, educational twist. This isn't just a story about skiing down; it's a rhythmic journey about the joy of earning your turns, the importance of safety, and the warmth of friendship.

A Unique Winter Tale Unlike typical skiing stories, this book introduces children to the exciting world of ski touring. Watch as the characters put "skins" on their skis to "climb with ease" toward the summit. From the anticipation of the uphill ski tour to the satisfaction of reaching a stone hut for a delicious lunch, readers will experience the full rhythm of a day in the snow.

Safety First, Adventure Always! Perfect for little adventurers, this book gently teaches respect for Mother Nature and the importance of preparation. Children will love following the rhyming checklist as the main character gears up:

Boots and Gloves: Snip Snap!

Helmet and Goggles: Don't be slow!

The Backcountry Trio: Beacon, Shovel, Probe-Ready to go!

Friendship and Fondue Join friends Lara, Léo, and Linus as they trek through white-painted mountains and sparkle-filled snow. The reward for their hard work? A stop at a mountain hut for fondue, a feeling of "home," and a celebration of their favorite Swiss peaks.
