Plot[]
Kitty shows Mimi her favorite new game: creating shadow plays under her blanket using a flashlight. Mimi doesn't like the game because it is stuffy under the blanket. Mimi thinks it is healthier to play outdoors with sunshine and fresh air. Kitty says that the shadow plays are healthy too because they exercise the imagination. Kitty suggests they compromise and take an imagination adventure...
They immediately find themselves trapped and lost in a dark forest. They see Ma Squirrel gathering leaves in the distance. They walk over to her for directions, but they lose her. They then see a house with a light and walk up to it. They listen outside the window and hear a story about a lost little girl in the forest. The girls are confused because they hear so many different voices telling the story.
Kitty peeks in and realizes Ma Squirrel was doing all the voices, putting on a shadow play to entertain her children. Kitty and Mimi then put on a shadow play of their own for the children.
