Ms. April loves her field and forest, pond and hill. When land development forces animals from their rural homes, Ms. April invites them to live safely on her land.  With Ms. Mae, a resourceful fox (and her closest friend), she shelters the animals until the day she falls ill and greedy enemies invade her land. At this moment of peril, Ms. Mae steps in to match wits with their adversaries.
