Description

Enhanced ebook (includes audio) An imaginative musical tale comprised of a narrated story interspersed with original and traditional songs that follows four inseparable friends who love being together. Bertie and his buddies never ever got bored with each other… except for the time when it rained for four straight weeks! That’s when they decided to repair an old boat and head for dryer lands, a sunny place atop the Blue Mountain. The journey to the faraway unknown destination wouldn’t be easy, but with a little help from newly made animal friends, they finally make it to the summit, the best place in the whole world to have a picnic! Recordings of the narrated story and 18 songs included.
