Mama Mouse and her child venture out to gather items from their neighbors--the bees, cows, miller--until they have all the fixings to prepare a huckleberry pie. All the while, the little mouse learns a gentle lesson in patience. Soft pastel-colored animals and landscapes surround mother and young one as they make the pie from scratch and eat it up together.
