A mummy penguin appears in Wissper's fridge with a small problem: she keeps losing her baby. Wissper travels to the penguins' icy home and discovers lots of baby penguins who all look the same. With the help of Gertie and Otis, Wissper works out a solution, she discovers none of the babies have names. And once they have names, they answer to them. And Wissper meets Peggy.

Wissper meets an elephant who wants to be an acrobat but doesn't quite have the talent for it; in fact he is quite a clumsy elephant. Wissper asks meerkat Monty to help, but inspired by a troupe of acrobatic monkeys, it's Wissper who finally solves Ellington the elephant's problem. He may not be a performer but his broad back makes a perfect stage.

Wissper meets a polar bear whose best friend won't swim. Wissper enrols the help of baby penguin Peggy and between them they work out first that the bear thinks the icy water is too cold and secondly a clever ruse to tempt him into the water. And of course once he's in, he loves the water and turns out to be a rather good swimmer.

Monty the meerkat pops up at Wissper's house complaining that his colony is overcrowded - there's no space for a meerkat to think! Wissper takes a look and summons Peggy the baby penguin to help! They summon all the baby penguins to show the meerkats what a real crowd looks like. Once they've gone the colony seems big enough for all the meerkats.

Wissper has a mouse in the house, and Mum does not like mice, so it's a quick transition to Hayley harvest mouse's lovely new nest. But Hayley isn't happy -another harvest mouse has built a nest next door blocking her view. Both mice stubbornly refuse to move so Wissper summons wise old Dan the panda to offer advice. He soon helps Wissper persuade the mice to take a different view.
