Dusty the fox cub can’t wait for her very first spring, and Dad tells her there will be a big party when it comes. All Dusty has to do is find 101 daffodils to prove it really is spring. That is a lot of flowers! Will Dusty be able to find them all with the help of her friends Mabel the mole and Ricky the robin?
