No matter how odd the animal pairing may seem, their friendship is strong as they set off on their adventure. They want to travel from mountains taller than a hundred hedgehogs, valleys wider than a thousand skunks, to seeing the dangers in the human world. Sydney and Taylor want to see it all.
But soon they discover the outside world is not for them. Plus they're hungry. So they return home, but not before there are more unexpected and hilarious twists.
In the end, their expedition was a great success — they'd tackled the unknown, been around other wild animals, and battled ferocious predators.
But best of all was returning home to enjoy their cozy burrow.
Sounds super cute right? It is! Your kids will love it.
