Description
On the first snowy day of school, seven—year—old Georgia is upset to discover that her best friend Winona is wearing a coat made with real fur. What comes next is a battle, and Georgia — with the comforting presence of her dog, Tizzy — must find a way to make things right with her best friend. As the two girls learn more about the animals that live in fur farms, they realize they must stand up for them — but how?
