A storm threatens the already damaged harbor breakwater, and Beamer the Lightouse fears for the safety of all who live in Little Golden Book Land. When Scuffy overhears Beamer sharing the bad news with the large ships anchored nearby, he promises to help, a clue to which the ships greet with laughter. Undaunted, Scuffy recruits Tootle the Train, Poky Little Puppy, and Shy Little Kitten to join him on his mission. Hilarious encounters with Saggy Baggy Elephant, Tawny Scrawny Lion, and Baby Brown Bear result in offers of help and a plan. The plan works out somewhat differently than intended, resulting in a wild ride with an unplanned landing, and it's a lot of fun.
