Poor Little Kiwi. He has caught a cold, and all he wants to do is snuggle in his burrow and eat worms. But words don't quite sound the same when you're all blocked up, and Little Sister gets confused. Is Little Kiwi getting a colt, or has he got a cold? And is he hungry ...or ugly? Soon all the forest friends have gathered to see what is going on. When they discover he's sick and hungry, they decide to cheer him up with a wonderful feast! But will the treats they bring him be what he really wants?
