OverviewThe forest is a beautiful place, full of many different animals, tall trees, and a crystal-clear river. But when Man appears, he cuts down trees and scatters litter on the ground. Soon, the animals find their home threatened and decide they must come up with a plan to change Man's ways. How can the animals show Man the true beauty and importance of their home? To understand the forest, Man must become a part of it. With Mother Nature's help, Man is transformed in ways he never thought possible. But will a change in Man's ways take root?
