One morning over breakfast, Rabbit asks his friends, "Did you hear the creaking and crashing in the woods last night?" Little Hedgehog says he didn't hear anything, but Badger and Fox did- and Fox is determined to find out what was making all the noise. That night, Fox hears the noises again, and this time, he sees a red hat just like Little Hedgehog's in the distance. But when Little Hedgehog insists he wasn't outside, the friends are puzzled. Who could it have been?
