❄️ Icehollow: Tracks on Snowy Packs Is Finally Here ❄️
Icehollow: Tracks on Snowy Packs Is Here ❄️
I am so excited to finally share that my paperback picture book Icehollow: Tracks on Snowy Packs officially launched on December 21, 2025. This book has been such a labor of love, and seeing it come to life just in time for winter truly feels magical.
Icehollow invites readers into a quiet winter forest where woodland families travel, rest, and prepare for the cold season together. Every page is filled with animals, gentle storytelling, cozy winter moments, and detailed illustrations that I poured my heart into. This story celebrates nature, togetherness, and the peaceful beauty of winter in a way I hope children and parents can enjoy side by side.
Signed paperback copies are now available on my website in a special bundle that includes a signed paperback, a bookmark, and a sticker pack. These bundles are currently in stock and available while supplies last. The paperback edition is also available on Amazon as an unsigned copy, and I am hopeful it will be available in local bookshops soon as well.
I do want to share a quick note --- I am still navigating some inventory challenges with receiving author copies from the printing presses I go thru. I truly appreciate your patience as I work through these delays and secure enough inventory to fulfill everyone’s orders. Thank you so much for bearing with me during this process. Your understanding means more than I can say! :)
I am also opening preorders for a very limited special stock bundle that will ship during the first week of January 2026.
This bundle includes a signed paperback copy of Icehollow, a bookmark, a sticker pack, and your choice of an animal plushie. Plushie options include a 12-inch barn owl, an 8-inch black bear, an 8-inch cougar, an 8-inch wolf, or a 7-inch arctic fox.
The same plushie bundle will also be available again during the second week of January, but this time featuring the hardcover edition of Icehollow, also signed. I am so excited to offer this edition for those who love hardcover keepsakes and special collector-style bundles.
This release feels especially meaningful to me because I was able to complete and publish Icehollow while nine months pregnant, and I am now just a week away from my due date! Oh my goodness!
Finishing this book before welcoming a new chapter of life feels incredibly rewarding, and I am deeply grateful that everything came together in time.
If you are curious about the behind-the-scenes process, you can follow me on Instagram at @sierra.forester, where I share how the book was illustrated and brought to life.
Thank you so much to everyone who has supported my work, shared kind words, ordered a copy, or followed along on this journey. Your support truly means the world to me. I wish you a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a cozy winter season filled with stories, warmth, and wonder!
With heartfelt thanks,
Sierra 🌲❄️
