To Eva’s wonder, a magic snowflake emerges above the thick snow, encouraging her to find her way home - she just needs to put one paw in front of the other and discover her courage.She continues through the forest with the snowflake motivating her and finally hears Mama bear’s voice calling. She is overjoyed to see her family and excitedly tells them all about the magic sparkling snowflake guiding her.
