In this story, kind-hearted Uncle Wiggily Longears and his housekeeper Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy set out to deliver a cherry pie to Grandpa Goosey Gander. Along the way, Uncle Wiggily impulsively gives the pie to a horse, feeling sorry that it only eats grass. Later, when the dangerous Woozie Wolf attacks Uncle Wiggily and Nurse Jane, the grateful horse repays the rabbit's generosity by letting them jump on its back and galloping them swiftly away to safety, demonstrating how an act of kindness was unexpectedly rewarded when they needed help the most.
