Whatever temper inspired her, it was decided that, on completion of their seventh week, all chipmunks must leave their mother and set out on their own into the big unknown. And so it is that on that fateful birthday, Mino is given his mother's kiss, but not her tears, and, with a sparkle in his heart and a sunny disposition, he's put on a bus towards his future life and a new home, where he might plant his seeds and watch them grow."--Provided by publisher.
