Squirrel, Wolf, and all the Friends of the Mossless Wood lead a quiet, happy life until the day a strange, fascinating traveler shows up. Pim the Panda will turn their lives upside down. With him, the friends will spread their wings and get the big picture, even turn their little hill into a rice paddy as beautiful as any terraced hillside in Asia. But winter and early frost come, sweeping aside all dreams of harvest. No problem! The Friends of the Mossless Wood are a resourceful lot. They'll turn their aborted plans into a happy accident and their frozen rice paddy into a gleeful skating rink!
