We have our annual Winter Festival in Burrwood Forest this month. It's meant to be a time for fun and wintery good cheer, but most of the burrs spend the whole time grumbling about the cold.

We usually have winter sports like skiing and snowburring. In case you've never heard of snowburring, it's a game where we burrs line up at the top of a hill and roll down, turning ourselves into snowballs. (You see, even SNOW sticks to burrs!)

The burr who ends up the biggest snowball wins. It's usually Gigantaburr, who is twice the size of all the other burrs.

(Although sometimes, a clever small burr can make his snowball bigger by zigzagging down the hill.)

That's all for now,
