The main character is David, an impatient, young deer, who is eager to follow in his father's footsteps.

Along the way David encounters a small community of animals trapped in a dire situation. A devastating storm has forced them to live in deplorable conditions and, as the rainy season comes to an end, they find themselves with little more than a mud puddle for drinking water. Humbled by their needs David's eyes are opened as he begins to see what life is like Beyond Valley Ridge.
