It's Royal Regatta Day in St. John's and Freddy is very excited. Dressed in his favourite pirate's suit, he and his mom go down to Quidi Vidi Lake - along with 50,000 other fans. Suddenly Freddy starts running! Why is he racing away? And how will his mother ever find him in this huge crowd? Join Freddy and his mom for all the adventures and wonderful sights and sounds of a Day at the Races. Destined to be a classic picture book, beautifully illustrated by HildaRose.
