When Morris the Moose gets a cold, Boris the Bear knows just what to do to make him well - or Boris thinks he does. But Morris has ideas of his own. Go to bed? Oh no! A bed has legs, and Morris might fall off when it jumps or runs. How does Morris's throat feel? "Hairy," he says, feeling the outside.

The cow, the deer, and the horse have four legs and a tail, just like Morris. But none of these animals is a moose!

Morris the Moose can't read or count, so he decides to go to school. After a day of ABCs and 123s, Morris is thrilled with all that he has learned.
