Description
It’s three days until Christmas and in the town of Big tower everyone is busy with the preparations. In this town lives the Bricó family, owners of a hardware store with thousands of objects in it and also the Mayor family,with a husband, a wife, who is the town’s mayor, four children and a butler called Travers. The two families are worried because the town’s square Christmas tree doesn’t have any lights on yet. The Mayors are blaming the Bricós and the Bricós are blaming the Mayors. Each family thinks it’s the other family’s job to light the tree. But they are wrong. Actually, this task falls to another family, the Furets. They are not a regular family; they are a rat family! This year they haven’t been able to decorate the tree because there’s an owl lurking around. If they go out, it will eat them. But if they don’t go out… the tree will remain in the dark.
A sweet adventure that encourages empathy, teamwork, kindness and that breaks stereotypes!
