Together with his friends -- the dog Nazeni, the mischievous cat Jack, and the ever-hungry pooch Pankui -- he welcomes new discoveries and acquaintances that come with the changing seasons. The spring brings flowers and greenery; the summer, chances to swim in the cool sea. With autumn come the fiery red maples, and winter brings hot and hearty meals.
