Description
Rooster, Hare and Bear bid adieu to Fox and Chicken, and start their sea voyage back home to the farm. But it's no pleasure cruise. En route they wash up on a deserted island, where Rooster discovers a mysterious white orb. Becoming oblivious to his companions, Rooster is possessed by the orb and takes it all the way home. His faithful companions follow, surviving toxic toadstools, piranhas and tiny bats. When Rooster gets home, he discovers the orb contains something more precious than he ever imagined...
