Stories

  • Model Plane Crazy · 10 pages

    Bugged by Jerry and Tuffy's lively indoor activities during a rainy day, Tom gives them a model airplane kit to busy themselves with - quietly. The mice cannibalize an old alarm clock's workings and springs to build a makeshift motor for their mini-plane, and endlessly annoy Tom with their pesky aerial antics.

  • Runaway Dogs · 5 pages

    When their master tells Spike and Tyke to "get lost," they take him at his word. On hearing that the master is offering a reward, kitty captures and returns them. The humiliated bulldogs make kitty help them bury their bones.

  • Grandpa's Holiday · 1 pages

    Mother Bird warns the children to look after Grandpa Bird on their outing, but the energetic grandfather wears them out and rescues them from Charlie Catbird.

  • Unhappy Motoring · 5 pages

    Barney gets his foot caught in Fuzzy and Wuzzy's gasoline powered motorized model car, resulting in a wild ride for all three bears.

  • Horning-In on Honey · 5 pages

    Wuff and Sammy gather wild honey to jar and sell to passing motorists. All goes well until Charlie Coyote forces his way into their little enterprise.

  • A Contentious Quest for Quiet · 4.75 pages
