From back cover: "Pudding and Muddle, the only two Furkens around, need a place to live. So when they stumble upon Old Toaster and his delightful elf-size house in the barrel in the basement, they decide THIS is the place to live. Soon they discover that they are watched over by a kind human named Noah. Just when life is settling down, along comes a curious human boy named Freddy. What's a Furken to do?"
