Little Sheeta's left home to find his friend and encountered a stranger with his own priorities…but all of that will have to wait, because, when you're just a few inches high, an acorn is a feast, and an anthill is an adventure! Sheeta and Izuna have happened upon a little girl named Kugel, who lives in a marvelous village built of hardened earth in a tree hollow! The townsfolk process the tree sap into the most amazing syrup Sheeta's ever tasted…but the same syrup has attracted ants, who have broken through the walls and are forcing Kugel and her people out. Kugel's mother, the village chief, wants to send her daughter away, but Kugel's not about to pass up a chance to fight for her home!
