Editor reviews
In Martha Hamilton and Mitch Weiss’ telling of this folk tale, a collection of barnyard animals, including a pig, a donkey, and a rooster, are invited to a raucous party that includes games like horseshoes and the "Hokey Pokey".
But at the feast that ends the party, only corn bread is served in the fine bowls. The animals behave politely with the exception of the indignant rooster, who leaves before he can find the hidden surprises in the meals.
Animal sounds embellish Hamilton and Weiss’ fun-filled performances of their own work, which includes southern accents for the various characters. This tale of politeness and patience will delight and educate.
Summary
Martha Hamilton and Mitch Weiss capture the rhythms and idioms of the rural South, and illustrator Don Tate's whimsical acrylics serve up a regular hoedown of fun.
