L’as du ski
Tout est blanc. Aucun bruit. Il a neigé cette nuit. Quelle joie ! Lapin Blanc et ses amis vont faire du ski. Ils glissent vite, vite et patatras ! Tombent dans la neige.
Ils recommencent. C’est très amusant ! Cochon Rose veut en faire autant.
Il s’élance... et s’enfonce jusqu’aux yeux.
- C’est froid, aidez-moi !
Les lapins le tirent, Cochon Rose est lourd, c'est difficile ! Enfin le voilà !
Il est tout blanc ! On dirait un bonhomme de neige. Seules ses deux petites oreilles dépassent.
- Je n’aime pas l’hiver, dit Cochon Rose. Je rentre chez moi attendre le printemps !
