Two children spend the year anticipating the fruit their apple tree will bear, only to have a wily thief upset their plans.

Following his father's sage advice, Little Poss narrowly escapes from Horrible Hound.

When Possum is awakened on the first day of spring by a loud noise that won't stop, he and all the other animals, who have also had their winters' sleep disturbed, set out to discover who is making all the racket.

A beaver and an opossum find what looks like a bean, wonder what kind it is, and eventually discover that it is a seed good for Halloween.

"Owly is a wonderful friend! He's honest, trustworthy, and kind. And whenever any of his pals are in trouble, he always finds a way to help. Owly demonstrates the power of friendship by cheering up his friends when they're down, rescuing his friends when they're in danger, and encouraging his friends when they doubt themselves. But Owly's buddies also show what it means to be a great friend in return"--Provided by publisher.

Possum is hiding from the sounds in the night, and his fear sets off a chain reaction in the other night animals.

Two good friends, Possum and Alien, spend time together celebrating their birthdays, discovering their uniqueness, and hanging out together in a tree.
