Derwood the goat has planted a garden and is prepared to defend it from all nibblers, including Tabitha the bunny, whom Derwood is convinced has designs on his growing vegetables; she teases him as the months go by, but after she helps him with the weeding the two become friends and share the feast.

Teetu the bunny writes a book during a much-needed break from his crowded burrow but before long, he is lost, hungry, and lonely.
