Plot[]
Part 1[]
Commissioned by the wolf, the fox sets out to snatch some chicks, but just as he’s about to get his paws on them, hears one chick tell him that they’ve got a great treasure of strength and wisdom inside the bag they’ve brought. The fox lets the chicks go and seizes the bag. When the wolf then notices that the bag only contains books, he is disappointed and chases the fox. The rabbit and the squirrel, who understand that the books are in fact the treasure of strength and wisdom, seize their opportunity, though the bear is not very convinced. Using a trick, the fox then steals some fish caught by his friends, but the wise squirrel will later discover her.
Part 2[]
The rabbit sets out to retrieve the fish that the fox and the wolf had taken, but is then captured by the two thieves who are running away with the loot. The rabbit, meanwhile, yells out for help. The bear, hearing his cry, can’t tell where the yell came from. The squirrel, however, hones in on the source of the yell, and tells the bear to throw a rope toward the ravine, but the bear says that it’s no good since it isn’t long enough. In the end, they throw the rope anyway, and the squirrel’s theory is proven true. The squirrel had read a book stating that one only needs to calculate the speed of sound in order to ascertain a given distance. The fox steals the bear’s honey to use it as bait to attract the three friends in a trap.
Part 3[]
The fox and the wolf have taken down the lightning rod that the squirrel had put up. The rabbit that had seen the fox bringing the pot of honey to the wolf’s den admonishes the bear that he should go get it back. But the den of the wolf is impregnable, and not even the bear can succeed in getting in. The squirrel, who spies an oncoming thunderstorm, erects the lighting rod on top of the wolf’s den, hoping lightning will strike it. This way, the roof of the wolf’s den would be clearly penetrated. From that moment on, the bear will become an ardent reader, realizing the squirrel had learned his trick through reading.
