This story was told in the first person by the author's granddaughter. It began when a coyote entered grandpa's backyard and attacked the family's blind dog, injuring it, making life termination mandatory. Then a rabbit, named Hoppy, talked to the granddaughter in secret, which begins a relationship with all wildlife talking to her and her brother. The animals loved the blind dog and wanted to support their new friends in the loss of their pet. The grandkids provided extensive help to their wildlife friends, helping them solve personal problems, which caused friendships to escalate. Grandma's love and devotion to her grandkids never wavered.
Five owls, who lead the groups, initiated a program in which their peers were judged to find any who were suffering excessively and were targeted to be put to sleep. That led to the dog being mistakenly attacked and dying because his condition was not understood. Later, the owl leader realizes this program was a mistake, and with Natalie's help, announced a new program that will treat ill patients.
Hoppy, the rabbit, witnessed the coyote attacking the dog. When this becomes known, the five owl group leaders bring the suspected coyote to court. Hoppy is the star witness. Other witnesses are presented including Willie, the mockingbird, whose superior memory is used by him to go to the Coyote Country, memorize the testimonies of the accused coyote and his father and present their testimonies at the trial. All coyotes had been banned from attending the trial. The accused coyote was found guilty. The judge announces that the sentence and its implementation will be decided and conducted by the guilty coyote's father and his father's peers.
This story emphasizes how important grandparents are for their grandkids and likewise. Yes, a coyote did attack the family dog. But was the rest of the story a dream, or did it actually happen? Aren't grandmas great?
