For generations, Farthing Wood has been home to a community of wild creatures. But drought has now dried up their water supplies and human property developers have moved in. With their world crashing about their ears, the animals call an emergency assembly. In desperation they plan a long and dangerous journey to White Deer Park, a wild-life sanctuary known only to Toad. Fox is appointed Leader, and Badger invokes the Oath of Mutual Protection to provide a guarantee of safety for the smaller creatures who are reluctant to travel with their predatory natural enemies. They will meet by the Great Oak at midnight to begin their long journey. |
