Sleepy time! Mummy fox snuggles up with little fox in their bed and tells a bedtime story. ‘Once upon a time there was a baby fox,’ she begins and yawns. Little fox never finds out what happens to the baby fox, because mummy fox is fast asleep after just a few sentences. Wonderful! Because tonight, little fox has something planned: he’s going to have a moonlight party with his friends. One after the other, all the animal children appear at their meeting point in the clearing. There’s only one thing missing: the moon! How can you have a moonlight party without the moon?
