Really rich guy decides to buy up a bunch of forest land and build a shopping center on it.

Spunky local kids rebel, and charge into rich man’s office to convince him to leave the forest alone!

Turns out, the forest is blighted with Dutch Elm Disease and needs to be cut down anyway before it spreads, and the new shopping center will create jobs for lots of out of work townsfolk.

Everybody wins!
