Eventually, the flood water reaches a height that they can no longer ignore and they have to work together to save their city. All the animals join together in a line and pull out the plug that is drowning the city. This is an . . . illustrated story that teaches a message not to let problems fester and with a little team work and community spirit, no problem is insurmountable."--Provided by publisher.
