What is Baby That Roared about?

Mr. and Mrs. Deer long for a baby, and one day, they discover a mysterious bundle on their doorstep. While Mrs. Deer believes their wish has come true, Mr. Deer is sceptical. The 'baby' won't stop roaring, and as they seek advice from friends, each helper mysteriously vanishes. It takes wise Granny Bear to uncover the truth: their 'baby' is actually a little monster with a big appetite!
