Inside the great tree lives a large community of squirrels of many colors and types, ruled by a good king and queen. The squirrels all call each other friends, and they live very happily. When a hurricane hits the coast of New Hampshire, the children's fun has taken a new direction, and the old oak tree is badly damaged. Now the human children must help their new squirrel friends, who might find themselves out in the cold when winter arrives.
