After an accident in which Beaver's lodge is ruined, Bear and Hedgehog build him a sturdy--if rather unbeaverlike--new house, complete with found-object "decorations." They mistakenly omit the door, but Beaver assures them he can fix that. The ending is a bit abrupt; however, the Schuberts tell their story with understated humor, and their illustrations enhance the friends' distinctive personalities.
