Description: At the Secret Animal Society Sanctuary, hidden away in a remote corner of the country, Christmas is approaching. There's lots to organise with the winter weather drawing in and all the endangered and rare animals to care for. Even fire-breathing dragons need food and shelter! When twins Eddie and Izzie and their family are awakened by two yetis just before the schools break up for Christmas, they realise through sign language that a baby Bigfoot has gone missing. It is starting to snow again finding a baby animal with white fur is going to be difficult. Eddie, Izzie and their little brother Toby all have to get to school for the end of term costume party so reluctantly they head out and the search continues without them. At school, Toby discovers one of the children crying outside wearing a snowman costume. When the little boy doesn't talk Toby names him Snowball and tries to look after him.
