Description
This is the story of how the donkey, the dog, the cat, and the cockerel all met one fine day. They became friends and went along the highway, singing together, to go and join the Bremen Town Band.
Quick Summary
Four barnyard friends, a donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster, pack up their ambitions and head down the highway to start a band, only to discover that a clever twist awaits them. Children will delight in the bright, whimsical pictures, the goofy animal antics, and the surprise ending where the music outwits a pair of mischievous thieves. If your child enjoys "The Little Red Hen", they'll love this musical menagerie of misfits who turn noise into victory. Ideal for kids ages 5 to 8, or those in kindergarten through third grade.
