When mother and father bear leave the children alone while they visit their grandmother they are given specific instructions for what to do while their parents are gone. Well, one incident follows another as they make a mess, destroy the pond wall, and lose their parents' life savings to peddlers who trick them. Desperate to set things right they head off into the woods to get the money back and that is where the fun really starts. This is a delightful, humorous story for children and recommended.
