Down in the dell, behind a curtain of foxgloves, lives a family of crafty weasels. They steal from all the little animals as they walk by; Speckledy Hen's eggs, Moldy Warp's axe... One day, as Little Grey Rabbit bravely hurries past the weasels' haunt, they jump out and snatch her away. We've been waiting for you, the weasels say, we want somebody to bake and wash and clean. Now it is up to her woodland friends to save Little Grey Rabbit and finally teach those weasels a lesson!
