Lana the little lamb always follows the flock — until a storm separates her from them, and for the first time she has to choose her own way.
Ludo the llama is climbing the Grand Mountain, and he blames everything in his way — the loose stones, the howling wind, the heavy snow. It never makes the climb any easier.
Otto the octopus thinks puffed-up Poldi the pufferfish must be really mad, so he swims away — until his friend Leni the manta ray asks: did you ask him?

A big-hearted bear can't understand why the small animals scatter when he arrives. He only wants to play!

Zee the zebra wishes she had real colors like the flamingos, parrots and leopards. All she has are black and white stripes, so she tries flower dust and sunshine to change.
