Share an old-fashioned country evening with your grandchildren by joining little Casey and his Grandpa on the back porch as they wait in anticipation for nature’s lullaby to begin. From the silly shrill of the tree frog to the soulful note of the barn owl, the night comes alive with song! Fireflies dance and the moon provides a spotlight while Casey and Grandpa identify each creature that joins the melody. But alas, neither can resist the soothing rhythm and before long, both drift off to sleep. The lullaby continues until a loud growl pierces the night. Is it a bear, a fox, or something more sinister? It’s neither, the sound is simply Grandpa snoring!
