Gooney Bird Greene & Her Fabulous Animal Parade
SEPTEMBER 2011
Mrs. Pidgeon has just begun a unit on Aesop's Fables when the classroom door opens and Gooney Bird Greene bursts into the room. The Watertower Animal Shelter is about to close due to lack of funds, she announces! What will happen to all the poor little dogs and cats?
"I know!" says Gooney Bird with her wonderful sense of adventure. "Let's create our own fables right here in class, Mrs. Pidgeon, and then perform them as a fundraiser for the animal shelter. We can each create a story using an animal that matches our own initial."
Mrs. Pidgeon agrees to the stories but only if they have morals like Aesop's Fables do. And so Gooney Bird and her classmates set about creating their own flamboyant fables.
This production is made possible by the generous support of the Otto Ullrich Memorial Fund as a Primary Corporate Sponsor.
