About This Book
A diminutive village faces crisis when two residents are captured by a tribe of wild men, prompting an urgent council and a coordinated response. The community mobilizes scouts, engineers, and an army that builds bridges, devises machines, and endures storms and narrow escapes while the captives observe their captors' customs. A dramatic assault and inventive rescues involve animal allies and clever contrivances, followed by aid, reconciliation and a communal peace dance. The tale concludes with the freed villagers returning home for a grand review and celebration that restores order and camaraderie.
