description: When Madeleine's parents go to the Pond Party they leave Carl and the baby at home for a cozy winter afternoon with a babysitter. But Carl and Madeleine have plans of their own-- they want to play in the snow! After getting all bundled up they sneak off to go sledding build a snowman and even make an appearance at the party and try sliding on the ice at the pond. Of course resourceful Carl gets the baby home before her parents return--and the babysitter is never the wiser.Everyone's favorite Rottweiler appears here in a wintertime romp.
