Synopsis
On a bright spring morning, Percy the park keeper sets out to trim the overgrown maze. His animal friends, eager for fun, decide to hide on the stone lion at the maze's centre to surprise him. However, they fall asleep before Percy arrives. Discovering them, Percy playfully pretends the lion is speaking, startling the animals awake. When it's time to leave, they realise the guiding string through the maze has been wound into a ball by a well-meaning squirrel, leaving them all lost.
