A possum and a muskrat become friends despite their many differences.

When best friends Cork and Fuzz go to the pond to collect shiny stones, they happen upon a duck's next just as the eggs are hatching, and Fuzz, who is wearing a feather from his collection, is collected by the mother duck.

Cork and Fuzz wake up knowing the day is special but not why, and when they finally find a quiet place to think about it, singing a festive song as a bell jingles and snow falls on a sparkling pine tree, they realize that their friendship makes every day special.

Cork the muskrat wants his best friend Fuzz, a possum, to visit his home, but first he must teach Fuzz to swim and not be afraid of the water.
