Set in Montana's Tobacco Valley, the narrative explores the region's transformation from a Kutenai Indian settlement to a bustling hub for cattle ranching and timber production. Initially discovered by David Thompson, the valley's isolation changed with the arrival of ranchers in the late 19th century and the Great Northern Railroad in 1904. Despite early hopes for agriculture, the harsh conditions led to a focus on timber, shaping the valley's economic identity for years to come.

Three friends embark on a journey towards independence in a lively swamp setting, only to be confronted by a scheming old alligator with ulterior motives. The trio bands together to outsmart the gator, adding a fresh twist to a classic story. This engaging tale of teamwork and courage brings a unique perspective to the familiar narrative of the Three Little Frogs.
