A tiny tugboat overcomes her fears of a turbulent storm to save a stranded barge in this timeless tale of persistence.

When faced with a tough challenge, Little Scoot only tries harder. Sent into a gathering storm to rescue a barge that's run aground, Little Scoot is tempted to turn around.

This triumphant tale is a testimony to the power of determination.
