Synopsis
Duck is feeling grumpy because the pond has dried up, and a grey cloud follows her everywhere. Her farmyard friends try to cheer her up with their favourite activities, but Duck refuses each one. As her mood worsens, the grey cloud grows, affecting everyone. Eventually, the cloud bursts into rain, refilling the pond and lifting everyone's spirits. This story highlights how moods can influence others and the joy of shared experiences.
