A mysterious bundle roars and friends vanish. What secret does it hold?
Mr. and Mrs. Deer find a peculiar bundle on their doorstep. Mrs. Deer believes it's the baby they've wished for, but Mr. Deer is skeptical. The bundle's incessant roaring leads them to seek help, yet each helper mysteriously disappears. As the mystery deepens, only Granny Bear can reveal the truth: the bundle is a hungry little monster. Can the Deers handle this unexpected challenge?
When Mr. and Mrs. Deer find a little antlered bundle on the doorstep, Mrs. Deer thinks their wish for a baby has come true; Mr. Deer thinks that the baby is very, very peculiar. It won t stop roaring, so they ask advice from friends and family, who in turn send them off to fetch what they think the baby needs. But each time Mr. and Mrs. Deer return home from an errand, someone is missing and the baby is still roaring. It takes wise old Granny Bear to spot the problem. The baby s not a baby - it s a little monster! A very hungry monster at that. . . .”
