For spring vacation, the boys went to the mountains in the far north to ski. There they met a Laplander family that had a reindeer named Prince. The children and Prince had a wonderful time playing in the snow. One day as Snipp, Snapp, and Snurr were skiiing back to their cabin, they became lost in a big snowstorm. And guess who came to the rescue?
When a kindly neighbor gave the boys some money to spend, they went straight to the bakery to buy some gingerbread--and they fell into the batter! Now Snipp, Snapp, and Snurr looked just like three gingerbread boys who had come to life.
