Musti ( In Hindi )

Dressed in his raincoat and wellingtons, Musti is walking in the garden. When Musti tries to dry a rose, a frog laughs at him. The frog and Mrs Duck love the rain. Mr Raven is having a wash in a puddle. Miss Tortoise tells Musti that her shell keeps her nice and dry, but that Mr Dog is not so lucky - his kennel is flooded. Musti hurries off and helps Mr Dog drag his kennel to a drier spot.

Musti is ill in bed. The doctor has called and he has given Musti some medicine to take. Mr Rabbit comes to the window to see how Musti is doing. Miss Tortoise has come too, but she stays safely on the ground. Musti tells his friends they needn't worry. When Mr Rabbit leaves, he sneezes. He seems to have caught Musti's cold.

Daddy and Musti visit the farm and Musti meets Mr Dog, Mrs Cow, Boomer the horse, the duck family, Oink the pig, Mother Hen and her chicks and Mr Cockerel.

It is a very warm day. Musti provides his friend Miss Tortoise with a little refreshment; he sprays her with cool water from the garden hose. When Mr Rabbit drops by, he wants the same treatment. But there is no more water in the hose. The water butt is completely empty. All they can do now is wait for some real rain.

When Mrs Goat finds she is missing a carrot, Musti immediately thinks of Mr Rabbit. The 'honest finder' Mr Rabbit returns the carrot to Mrs Goat. Mrs Goat rewards his 'honesty' by giving him half of the carrot.

When Musti helps Daddy water the flowers in the garden, he accidentally sprinkles Mrs Hedgehog. Musti shows Mrs Hedgehog around the flowers in the garden. When they come to the roses, Musti goes off to ask Daddy if he can pick some. Roses have thorns... as Mr Rabbit soon discovers!

When Musti looks after Mother Bird's chicks, Mother Bird stays away a very long time. Miss Tortoise takes over from Musti, so that he can go and look for Mother Bird. One of the birds falls out of the nest. Miss Tortoise protects it with her shell until Musti and Mother Bird return.

Musti visits the farm. Mother Hen and the chicks are outside pecking for grain, but Mr Cockerel is ill. He can't crow any more. Musti thinks Daddy will be able to help, so he carries Mr Cockerel home to his house. On the way there, he trips. This dislodges a grain of corn that was stuck in Mr Cockerel's throat. Now Mr Cockerel can crow again.

Mr Rabbit's three nephews have come to stay with him. While Mr Rabbit is sleeping, the three little rascals sneak off to play... Luckily, Musti finds them.

Mummy has just hung out the washing. Musti wants to help her. He takes a dirty handkerchief and rinses it out in soapy water. Miss Tortoise is thirsty. She drinks from the soapy water. This makes her feel ill. When Musti sees a soap bubble coming from Miss Tortoise's shell, he realises she must have drunk soapy water.

Mummy and Daddy tell Musti they are all going to go on holiday in an aeroplane. How exciting! That night Musti dreams that he flies to the moon and plants his flag there.

Daddy makes a mask for Musti, because it is carnival time. When Musti shows himself to Miss Tortoise, she doesn't recognise him. Miss Tortoise naturally wants a mask too. And when the two friends pass Mr Rabbit in the woods, he doesn't recognise either of them.

It is Boomer the horse's birthday. Musti, Oink the pig, Mother Hen, the duck family, Mrs Cow and Mr Cockerel all pretend they have forgotten. And then Musti gives Boomer a bunch of flowers and Mr Rabbit gives him a carrot. Of course everyone has remembered Boomer's birthday!

When Musti visits the farm, none of the animals are to be seen. They are all waiting impatiently at the chicken coop, where Mrs Hen is brooding her eggs. Musti takes a peek inside and sees the egg shells breaking open and the chicks hatching. All of the animals are overjoyed about the birth of the new chicks.

It is raining outside and Musti is bored. Perhaps this would be a good time to tidy up his toy cupboard? Musti's wooden horse is broken. He asks Mummy for a tube of glue and mends it. He builds a tower with his building blocks. When he has finished he puts his bag of marbles, his trumpet, a picture book, a toy car and everything else tidily back in the toy cupboard.

Mr Rabbit says Miss Tortoise isn't feeling very well. She has done nothing but eat for the past two days and she keeps on yawning. Miss Tortoise is getting ready for her winter sleep. But she still has to find a cosy place to sleep. Mr Rabbit says she can share his burrow. When it turns out that Miss Tortoise snores, Mr Rabbit digs himself a new burrow.

Musti goes for a walk in the woods. He looks up at the trees. Their leaves are changing colour. He meets Mrs Hedgehog who tells him she is getting ready for her winter sleep. A squirrel is collecting acorns. Mr Mole has a cold and can't remember where his house is. He can't see very well. Musti asks him if his house underneath a mound of earth. Mr Mole is standing on it.

Mr Dog is very unhappy because one of the planks is missing from his kennel. Musti finds out that Miss Tortoise and Mr Rabbit have taken it to use it as a seesaw. Honesty compels the two rascals to confess everything to Mr Dog.

When Musti and Mummy go for a picnic, they tell Mr Rabbit he can come along. Musti wants to pick blueberries, but Mr Rabbit says he doesn't like blueberries and goes off in search of something else. Meanwhile, somebody has already started eating a carrot from the picnic basket. It looks like Mr Rabbit. But it's not. It is his nephews' friend Nibbles Rabbit.

There is a strange mark on the ground that copies everything Musti does. Whatever can it be? A goose tells Musti it is his shadow. A peacock and a swan have also lost their shadows. Luckily, wise old Mr Owl can explain the mystery. He tells Musti he just has to wait until the sun peeps out from behind the clouds. Moments later the sun reappears... and so does Musti's shadow.

Mummy has baked a cake. She gives Musti a piece for Miss Tortoise and Mr Rabbit.  Miss Tortoise says she will bring Mr Rabbit his slice, but on the way to Mr Rabbit's burrow she eats it herself. This gives greedy Miss Tortoise an upset tummy.

It has been snowing. Musti drags his sledge to the top of a hill. When he slides down again, he almost crashes into Mr Rabbit. Mr Rabbit wants to have a go on the sledge on his own. He crashes into a tree and hurts himself. But Mummy soon makes Mr Rabbit better again.

Musti and Mr Rabbit have built a snowman. They are worried because the weather is getting warmer. They decide to save their snowman by moving him out of the sun. Musti loads the snowman onto a cart and he and Mr Rabbit move him into the shade of an old willow. But it doesn't help. By the next morning the snowman has melted.

This year Musti is helping to decorate the Christmas tree. He hangs baubles and tinsel in its branches and garlands it with fairy lights. What a lovely Christmas tree it is! When Musti lays presents for Daddy and Mummy beneath the tree his work is done. This year Mummy and Daddy give Musti a toolbox for Christmas.

Musti and Miss Tortoise help a timid little duckling who thinks she can't swim. A little 'encouragement' from Miss Tortoise soon gets the duckling into the water... And look, she can swim, because every duck can swim. Now the little duckling won't have to worry about being teased anymore.
