A very disturbed Isha meets the hedgerow-folks and befriends them. They unite to investigate. The situation worsens when the villains want to oust the family from their house. The villains also want to remove the hedgerow and make the hedgerow-folk homeless. How do Isha & the hedgerow-folk deal with the grim situation? Hedgerows are part of Earth's lungs. They are an important habitat. They should be preserved.
