About This Book
"Old Cricket tells his missus why he can''t fix the roof -- ""I woke with a creak in my knee, dear wife.""
He tells Cousin Katydid why he can''t pick berries -- ""I woke with a creak in my knee and a crick in my neck.""
He tells Uncle Ant why he can''t harvest corn -- ""I woke with a creak in my knee, a crick in my neck, and a crack in my back....I''m off to see Doc Hopper.""
But before he gets there, Old Crow comes calling. ""Caw-caw-caw,"" he says, hungrily. And caw is one C-word Old Cricket can''t relish.
The creators of Sailor Moo present a second critter comedy, full of wordplay and antic animation."
