A Picnic In The Sun - Book/CD
SKU: 4X-P6U0-BVQX
Once upon a time there were four friends who never left each other, they had too much fun together. Now, for several weeks, Bébert's gang had been terribly bored, because it had been raining constantly. Fortunately, they had the fabulous idea of going for a picnic away from the water. They then decided to repair a large boat to cross the river and go to the Blue Mountain. Accompanied by several friends, including a weasel, a fox and a wolf, they left for this new country where they would all be so wonderfully, so magnificently, so wonderfully well!
This musical tale will make children laugh like never before. The story is carried by a few well-known traditional songs and a dozen compositions as tender as they are funny. Illustrations of great finesse accompany this joyful and totally unbridled journey.
