The first story involves a small animal character who must confess to eating a large bird, ultimately being sent to his room as punishment, only to escape and go hunting with an older male character. "Ernie the Earthworm" by Lil K.

In "Bear Facts," a young bear named Alfred is determined to go hunting with his father, despite his mother’s protests that they already have plenty of food. When the pair set off on what they think is a simple hunt, they end up far from home—and accidentally shoot a group of deer, only to be chased by the very animals they intended to hunt.
Squeak and Pip, two mischievous mice, attempt to steal corn from a garbage can using a music box to lure a cat away, but their plan goes awry when the music box unexpectedly attracts the feline instead. As chaos ensues, the mice must scramble to escape the cat’s wrath while trying to keep their scheme from unraveling completely.
