Marjolahteen muuttaa outo apteekkari, Laina Lintunen. Erityisesti lapset saavat hänet hermostumaan. Peruukki kallellaan hän hätistää innokkaimmat asiakkaat ulos hygieenisestä liikkeestään ja järjestää kynät riviin hohtavan työtakkinsa taskuun.
Sannin lemmikkisiili loukkaantuu, ja se on saatava hoitoon. Tyttö rohkaisee mielensä ja pyytää apteekkarin apuun. Tädin tiukan ulkokuoren alta löytyykin eläinrakas ihminen.
Sannin kesäpuuhat huipentuvat monipäiväiseen syntymäpäiväjuhlintaan, joka päättyy iloiseen yllätykseen.
