At one year old, a little lizard is finally old enough to move out and learn to live on his own! He sets out and, at first, tries to find the easy way out by taking over another's home or finding someone else's food to eat. In the bargain, he almost becomes someone else's food! But, in the end, he learns a valuable lesson: that being responsible is actually easier than being lazy!
