But the mother of Ossi, Veino and Anna-Marie is always on a business trip, sometimes at an important meeting, so dad has to manage the children. Having gone with the whole company to the forest for mushrooms, dad discovers that there is no hope of distinguishing edible mushrooms from poisonous ones, because the pictures in the atlas-identifier of mushrooms are painted with felt-tip pens … But everything will end well.
