Overview

Deep, deep down in their underground town, the prairie dogs live in harmony--until a mysterious, fluorescent, very fuzzy thing (otherwise known as a tennis ball) rolls down their hole. When the prairie dogs discover that they can pluck and pull the fuzz into fabulous fashions, their fear quickly turns to curiosity, then delight, then pure greed. Will the frenzy that erupts tear apart the prairie-dog town forever. Or will the kidnapping of mean ol' Big Bark trigger the prairie dogs to come to his rescue and remember the true meaning of community?
