La harpe chantante possède le don d'offrir la joie, la beauté et le bonheur autour d'elle, protégeant la Vallée enchantée. Par un beau matin de printemps, d'une fenêtre du château, la harpe entame une chanson et entraîne les moutons, une vache et un taureau, des corbeaux dans une farandole de joie. Mais une sombre nuit, elle est enlevée par un inconnu. La vallée n'étant plus protégée par un charme, elle périclite. Trois fermiers de la vallée, Mickey, Donald et Dingo, tentent de survivre en se partageant des tranches de pain transparentes et un unique haricot. Mais Donald n'en peut plus : il envisage de tuer la vache à coup de hache tellement la faim le rend fou.

Seven-year-old Johnny is excited about what he believes to be a vacation at his grandmother's Georgia plantation with his parents, John Sr. and Sally. When they arrive at the plantation, he discovers that his parents will be living apart for a while, and he is to live in the country with his mother and grandmother while his father returns to Atlanta to continue his controversial editorship in the city's newspaper. Johnny, distraught because his father has never left him or his mother before, leaves that night under cover of darkness and sets off for Atlanta with only a bindle. As Johnny sneaks away from the plantation, he is attracted by the voice of Uncle Remus telling tales "in his old-timey way" of a character named Br'er Rabbit. Curious, Johnny hides behind a nearby tree to spy on the group of people sitting around the fire. By this time, word has gotten out that Johnny is gone and some plantation residents, who are sent out to find him, ask if Uncle Remus has seen the boy. Uncle Remus replies that he's with him. Shortly afterwards, he catches up with Johnny, who sits crying on a nearby log. He befriends the young boy and offers him some food for the journey, taking him back to his cabin.
