One morning, Huckleberry Hound was hanging out in the park with his best friend, Snagglepuss. Huck was flying his kite, while Snag sat in the grass, reading a play. Huck enjoyed flying his kite. It was bright blue, and had gold stars, and red musical notes all over it. He pulled the rope, causing the kite to do a loop-de-loop.
"Ahhhh, what a beautiful day!" he sighed.
"Ahhhh, yes," Snag replied. "This classic play is so lovely! Beautiful! Heartwarming, even!"
"I love the nice gentle breeze," Huck said. "Perfect for flying a kite. Look how pretty!"
"It certainly is! Although, I've never flown a kite before."
"Don't worry!" Huck replied. "With a little practice, flying a kite is a breeze!"
The duo couldn't help but laugh at the joke. "That's a good one, Huck!" Snag chuckled.
But then, they heard someone crying.
"Uhhhh, what's that sound?" Huck asked.
"I'm not sure," Snag replied. "It sounds like someone crying. Weeping, even."
The duo followed the sound of the crying, and soon, they came to where the sound was coming from. And there, right in the meadow, sat a tiny duckling with yellow feathers and green wings, crying its eyes out.
"Awwww, it's a little duckling," Huck said. "But, why is he crying?"
"I think I might know him!" Snag replied.
The duo went up to the duckling, and Huck started petting its little feathers. "Hi," he said. "What's wrong?"
The little duckling looked up at Huck. "Are you my mama?" he asked.
"Me?" Huck chuckled. "Oh, no, I'm not your mama. I'm a hound dog. So, what seems to be the problem?"
"I lost Chopper!"
"You lost who?"
"Chopper! He's my best friend!"
"Ohh!" Huck patted the duckling again. "Don't worry, little feller. We'll help you find your friend. What does he look like?"
"Well, he's about this big, and he's got ears like this," the duckling said, imitating with his tiny wings. "And he wears a big red collar!"
"I see," Huck said as he wrote down his description on a notepad.
"Yeah! And sometimes he likes to visit Yogi Bear, but he's not there today!"
"Yogi Bear?!" Huck cried. "You know Yogi Bear?"
"Sure! I'm a part of his TV show! And so is Chopper!"
Snag immediately gasped, recognizing the tiny duckling. "Yakky Doodle!" he cried. "What are you doing all the way out here in person?"
"I told your friend here! I lost Chopper! Fibber was after me again!"
"Oh dear! I'm sure he can help you out! But let me introduce you first!" Then he turned to Huck. "Huck, this is Yakky Doodle! He's a friend of mine who stars with me and Yogi on the Yogi Bear Show! Yakky, this is my best friend, Huckleberry Hound!"
"How do you do?" Huck said, shaking Yakky's wing.
"How do you do?" Yakky said back.
Huck chuckled. "You're so cute! I'm sure I can help you find Chopper, and keep you away from Fibber. By the way, who is Fibber?
"Fibber Fox," Snag explained. "He's Chopper's sworn enemy, on account of how he always wants to eat Yakky...devour him, even!"
"Yikes!" Huck cried. "Then we better stay away from him! We don't want this little feller to be a fox's lunch!"
