    Fern Hollow is a wonderful place to live. Ask Professor Sigmund Swamp or old Brock Gruffy to tell you about their lovely little village and they will talk all day and yet hardly have begun. They will tell you that Fern Hollow nestles at the foot of the trees of Windy Wood and that through the village runs the sparkling ribbon of the River Ferny. The animals of Fern Hollow are all good friends and neighbours, and if you are a stranger they will make you feel at home in next to no time.

Mr Rusty''s house is flooded and he and his family are forced to take refuge on the roof! Things look very bad for the Rusty family.

In the morning the River Ferny, which had become swollen with all the rain, overflowed and rushed down into the hollow where Mr. Rusty''s house stood. The water crept up higher and higher until, at last, Mr. Rusty and his family had to climb up on to the roof.When Mr. Periwinkle the mailman came riding down the lane and saw Mr. Rusty and his family all perched on their cottage roof, he was so surprised that he fell off his bicycle. "Don''t worry, Mr. Rusty," cried Mr. Periwinkle, scrambling to his feet.
