Epigraph

Dedication

This book (by kind permission from a committee of three) is again for Samantha, Genevieve and Olivia, with love from Gerry Pa

First words

The Dollybutt children liked what they called a 'proper winter', one with clear, blue skies and sunshine, and plenty of clean, white snow that squeaked like mice when they walked on it.
