Hariko the hedgehog goes to town to buy a scarf, but while she has her eyes closed, she gets hit by a truck. A boy who sees this comes to Hariko's rescue ("The Hedgehog's Adventure"). Two penguins who live in an icy land set out on a journey across the ocean on a piece of ice, but along the way the ice melts and they fall into the sea. An Eskimo boy arrives in a boat and rescues the two ("Pim and Pom the Penguin"). Pi, a little bird without wings, wishes he had beautiful feathers like his friend. So his bird friends get together and give each other one of their feathers ("Pee the Bird"). In each story, a kind rescuer appears when the protagonist is in danger. This is a heartwarming picture book set perfect for children encountering stories for the first time.
