Basil, Rosemary and the Pansy sisters are lively, chatty little plants. They think they know some stuff, but when it comes to this animal, they know nothing. One wild assumption leads to another and gets them into big trouble.
Excerpt from the tale:
Basil, Rosemary and the Pansy sisters lived together in a bright orange flowerpot. The pot sat on a windowsill outside the zoo's cafe.
Basilikum, Rosmarin und die Stiefmütterchen Schwestern lebten in einem hellen, orangefarbenen Blumentopf. Der Topf stand draußen auf einem Fenstersims vom Zoo Café.

In front of the plants was a black road painted with white stripes. Visitors who came to the zoo walked over the white stripes when they crossed the road.
Vor den Pflanzen war eine schwarze Straße, auf der weiße Streifen gemalt waren. Besucher, die zum Zoo kamen, gingen über diese weißen Streifen, wenn sie die Straße überquerten.
