One day, he cries, “I need a friend,” and is excited to hear a voice saying the same thing from the opposite bank. Eagerly, he sets out to find the voice, and along the way encounters Duck, Otter and Turtle, all in need of a friend, and invites them to join him. At their destination, a wise old beaver tells them that the voice was just an echo, but the travellers are satisfied, as they realise that they already have found good friends in each other!
