They unite, becoming âall for one and one for allâ, the seven inseparable Friends of the Forest!
02 The Castle
When the Friends of the Forest offer to help Achilles cut some wood, an argument breaks out. Achilles leaves the Friends to finish the job alone. When Achilles returns the next day with Roger, they discover that the clearing has been ravaged: the logs
have disappeared and the trees are chopped up badly, endangering the forestâs regrowth. Achilles and his father think that the Friends are responsible which causes a real rift in the group. In reality, the Friends of the Forest will discover that the Raspys have wrecked their work. Achilles apologizes for having suspected the Friends and together they teach the rat family a lesson to dissuade them from ever damaging the forest again.
03 The magic star
Feeling like heâs different and on the sidelines of the group of Little Friends, Titan tries to get some attention by telling a huge lie: he makes the seven Friends believe that he has magic powers! One day, while fishing in the river, there is an accident

07 The Old Oakâs notebook
Danny is embarrassed at the blackboard in school when he canât get the answer to a math problem, and the other students make fun of him. The Old Oak tries to explain that it would make more sense to offer to help him with his lessons than to mock him.

As he heads home with a heavy heart he runs into the Raspys, who have managed to steal the Old Oakâs notebook. The notebook has all of the answers to the exercises done in class and the Raspyâs want to trade it for
Dannyâs help in getting them the Old Oakâs Magic Star. Suddenly, Danny seems like the smartest student in class because he knows the answers to every problem.

playground. But the Little Friends have something to say about that. With the help of the Beavers, they plan to catch the fake monster at its own game.

Panic ensues: if we let the birds do as they please, soon there will be no fruit left to eat! Everyone looks for a way to make the birds go away. But in vain! Thanks to one of the Old Oakâs famous visions, he realizes that Achillesâ statuettes would make perfect scarecrows! All thatâs left to do is convince Achilles to modify his âmasterpiecesâ.
