A warm and reassuring story of friendship, confidence and finding your voice.

In the heart of the forest, everyone is getting ready for the Big Show. Bob is desperate to join in, but every time he tries to sing in front of anyone he gets so nervous that his trunk gets tangled and all he can do is squeak. Bob's friend Paloma shares her special secret to beat stage fright and helps him overcome his fears, but the moment he steps into the spotlight, it all goes wrong. Can Bob remember the secret and save the show?
