Just when Emmi, a rabbit student, is declared guardian of the magical Golden Egg, a group of daring badgers led by the determined Linda break into the rabbit school and kick the rabbits out. And this happens just before Easter! Emmi and her friends Max and Ferdi set out to protect the Golden Egg and uncover a well-kept secret that turns the rabbits’ worldview upside down.
