Your children will wear out this book with the reading of it!!!  The story rhymes in delightful lyrical verse. There are three parts to this book.  In part one the animals all make their decision to tryout.  This is an animal troup filled with bunnies, teddies and kittens that are so cute and huggable; our little characters just want to be one.  The first part is the decision to do it.  The second part is the failure.  They try and they didn't make it.  We all go through this. Part three has Raymond starting his own little troup called the Artsy Animals who teach good things and use their talent to teach.   Students learn about musical instruments, dance, art, etc. in a hilarious way.  Cost is $19.95.
