A family of musical snowmen live in a snowy valley. Their active little son keeps losing his carrot nose, which is replaced diligently by his mother from her store every evening. But when a rabbit discovers their secret stash, the whole family must find new noses! A bite-sized and ambrosial animated short about the importance of compassion, understanding and forgiveness.
