Bossy Primrose patrols the pantry party while Mrs. Crusty naps, nixing nips and nudges amid hedge hilarity and harvest hijinks. From scone swipes to syrup spills, her edicts erupt in edible escapades till a tidy truce tempts treats for all. MacDonald's merry mischief mirrors Brambly's bustling burrow, a nutty nod nurturing naughty nibblers' naughty nabs.
