The reptiles and fish living in a small pond launch a plan to eradicate Mr. Big, a snapping turtle that terrorizes them. Despite a few protests from some pond dwellers, the animals solicit the support of a murder of crows to carry out their plot. But the scheming crows have their own motives to kill the large reptile. As the plan is put into action, a different, greater terror has found itself a member of the pond. Will Mr. Big be ousted forever? Or will the pond dwellers come to realize that even the old snapping turtle might serve his purpose in their small environment? Softcover, 100 pages, full color. Cover price $12.95.
