Bucky, the old deer king, is in trouble. It is Christmas and his front leg is swollen; he cannot run or leap, and he can hardly walk. Still, B.B., one of the squirrels, does not want him at the kind Food Lady’s feeding area. B.B. does not want to share with Bucky, and he thinks all the Christmas treats, all the apples, nuts and birdseed, are for Bucky, not himself or the other animals and winter birds.

B.B. decides to bury the apples in the snow. He does not care what Coonie or Jerome, the neighbourhood’s friendly raccoon and skunk, have to say about the meaning of Christmas or Jesus’s birthday.

Rusty, the orange squirrel, and Lilly, the tiny sparrow, help B.B. change his mind.
