The little mice watched wide-eyed as all the preparations were made.
Then at last everything was ready, and the Ball could begin…

Quickly, all the mice of Brambly Hedge set to work to finish the harvesting before the rain begins.

The sun went down, the wind rose and it began to rain. Primrose was all alone in the dark and she was frightened.
Poor Primrose, would she find her way home again?
