Synopsis
Timmy Tiptoes, a diligent grey squirrel, and his wife Goody gather nuts for winter. Wrongly accused of theft, Timmy is trapped inside a hollow tree. There, he befriends Chippy Hackee, a mischievous chipmunk. As Timmy indulges in the stored nuts, he becomes too plump to escape. A strong wind eventually frees him, teaching lessons about friendship and the perils of overindulgence.
