Evan, an orange and white fox, has a farm. It's Evan's home. His friend, a black and white dog, often stays there with him and they do everything together. They drive Evan's farm truck and play games. They read books and have ice cream. But their favourite thing is working in Evan's yard. In the yard, plants are big and beautiful. But friends don't always stay together. One day, the dog dies, so Evan loses his best friend. Without his best friend, the yard becomes a sad place. Evan feels so angry that he destroys his yard.

But a good place will not stay empty for long. New plants quietly start to grow. One day, Evan finds a small pumpkin vine in his yard. He starts to look after it. Fall comes and there is a huge pumpkin on the vine in his yard.
It is the fair week. Evan takes his huge pumpkin to the fair. He meets his old friends there and he enjoys delicious food. Best of all, his pumpkin wins him a prize: 10 dollars or a little dog. What does Evan want? You might know the answer. Yes. He drives home with the dog.
