Mr Otter and the River

Mr Otter and his friends have lived peacefully by the river for years, but their lives are disrupted one day and they set off to investigate the source of all that noise. Mr Otter is a stick-in-the-mud but comes to realise that new friends and new experiences are not always to be avoided.

Mr Otter and the River tells the story of Mr Otter and his friends, Needles the Hedgehog and The Squirrel, who have lived peacefully by the river for years. Their lives trundle on from day to day with nothing much happening, and that's the way they like it.

One day, the riverbank quiet is interrupted by loud bangs and crashes. Mr Otter is not happy about this, so he and his friends set out to investigate the source of all that noise. Expecting to give someone a stern telling-off, Mr Otter is instead introduced to new friends.

Soon, he discovers that he needs their help and learns that he has to rely on others. Through this journey, Mr Otter realises that solid friendship can be found in unexpected places.
