The snail is frustrated because he's too slow, the mouse is fed up of being overlooked and the skunk is ashamed of his smell. They all feel small and helpless and would like to be stronger, prettier and braver.
Luckily, Dr. Kugelrund is on their side: "It's not size or strength, it's what you do with it that counts!" he tells them encouragingly.
Off the animals go, quickly to realize that in their own ways, they're all little heroes Towards the end of the story it's Dr. Kugelrund's turn to feel small, and the animals are able help and support him in return.
