Oh, what was that? Gletschi, the smallest of the Montanini glacier flea family awoke with a start and jumped up from his ice bed. He hit his head on the ice lamp and, slightly dazed, he fell back into his ice bed. Plop. Again. His eyes flew open once more. This wasn’t a dream. Something was going on. Plop. The little glacier flea scratched his head and looked around cautiously. His 29 brothers and sisters were fast asleep. And his mum and dad hadn’t noticed anything either. Plop. Since Gletschi was the smallest and weakest of the family, his mum and dad had always been very protective of him. This mollycoddling had turned him scared of many things. Much to his displeasure, nature had given this glacier flea a fluffy, ice-blue fur and a red nose. To make up for it though, he was also the most inquisitive and restless member of the glacier flea family. So, he took a deep breath, got out of bed and carefully crept along the ice wall to where the sound was coming from.
