When the ant colonies of Buggy Kingdom get into a fight over the ownership of a lost jar of jam, King Bigwig of the Mountain Ants and King Foptop of the Valley Ants prepare for battle. But it is the Romeo and Juliet romance of Prince Dando and Princess Dayzie which helps both sides come to their senses, in this modern classic for young and old alike.
