His friends think he’s making it up, but venture into the next valley to find her. With every step their doubts grow, but she is right there hiding on the patches of white snow, thinking it’s all a big game of hide and seek. Only when she falls into the stream and the friends save her do they believe Little Nutbrown Hare. The fawn visits them on Easter Day, but isn’t so good at playing hide and seek in the grassy meadow, until they find a field of pure white flowers to play in.
