SynopsisA chatty crow, a newly ambitious dog, and a pair of unlikely animal friends are the stars of these three charmingly illustrated tales by Don Freeman, author of Corduroy and Beady Bear. The long-out-of-print stories, now available in a single-volume collection, combine humor with gentle lessons in humility, responsibility, and loyalty. Cyrano the Crow centers on a talkative creature who takes great pride in his ability to imitate owls, parrots, and other birds. But when Cyrano is invited to perform on a television show, the conceited crow gets a comeuppance. Flash the Dash recounts the tale of a lazy dachshund named Flash who likes to nap while his spouse, Sashay, does all the work. When Sashay insists that he find a job, Flash becomes a messenger and realizes the importance and benefits of hard work. The Turtle and the Dove tells of a weary bird who finds rest on a tiny round islandwhich turns out to be a turtle's back. The new companions weather a storm together and discover the power of a deep friendship., Each of these three charmingly illustrated tales by the author of Corduroy and Beady Bear offers a gently told lesson in morality. In Cyrano the Crow, a conceited bird gets a comeuppance; The Turtle and the Dove demonstrates the power of a deep friendship; and Flash the Dash recounts a lazy dog's acceptance of responsibility., Three charmingly illustrated tales include Cyrano the Crow, concerning a conceited bird's comeuppance; The Turtle and the Dove, demonstrating the power of friendship; and Flash the Dash, recounting a lazy dog's reformation.
