The Road Through the Winter Forest

Ylva and Leo live on the outskirts of the forest. The animals live inside it. Here, we meet a baby magpie, a jay, an old squirrel grandmother, a fox, and many more.

One morning, both humans and animals wake up to find plastic stakes running all the way through the forest. What is happening? The children find out that a new motorway is being planned. This will destroy the world for both two- and fourlegged creatures. Humans and animals both start protests and campaigns, but it’s hard to be taken seriously when you’re just a child. Things are even more difficult for the animals. It’s only when animals and humans realize they’re fighting for the same cause that they make any progress. But will it be enough?
