Description
Every day, a boy called Morris goes to the top of the mountain in search of his grandmother's dog, aptly named Houdini, who disappears or runs away every day. The boy knows the path through the mountain well, its steep rocks, crooked fir trees and thorny bushes, but also the stories that are told about the mountain. That day, just as he caught her and headed home with her in his arms, a snowstorm broke out. Morris is momentarily lost, but then the boy appears, and next to him stands a huge ram. An icy adventure begins.
