Basil, Rosemary and the Pansy sisters are lively, chatty little plants. They think they know some stuff, but when it comes to this animal, they know nothing. One wild assumption leads to another and gets them into big trouble.

Excerpt from the story -
The Pansy sisters lived in a green flowerpot below an old oak tree. They shared the pot with Basil, Rosemary, and Monkey.
Hercai Menekse kardesler, yasli bir mese agacinin altindaki yesil bir saksida yasiyorlardi. Saksiyi Feslegen, Biberiye ve Maymun ile paylasiyorlardi.
Rosemary and the Pansy sisters liked picking on Basil. The sisters' bright colours scared him and he wanted them to be quiet.
Biberiye ve Hercai Menekse kardesler, Feslegen'e satasmaktan hoslaniyorlardi. Kiz kardeslerin parlak renkleri Feslegen'i korkutuyordu ve onlarin sessiz olmalarini istiyordu.
"Basil, you're so daft!" said the sisters, "monkeys climb trees!".
Monkey ignored them but he was different. Monkey was an animal.
"Feslegen, çok aptalsin!" dedi kiz kardesler, "maymunlar agaçlara tirmanir!".
Maymun onlari görmezden geldi fakat o farkliydi. Maymun bir hayvandi.
