Produktbeschreibung

Three fables from around the world are retold in this play-Aesop's Grasshopper and the Ants; Armadillos in the Road, an original Texas fable; and The Foolish Lion and the Clever Rabbit (from India). In the Grasshopper and the Ants, the grasshopper only wants to play all summer long but the busy ants know they have to gather food for their colony. While the grasshopper tries to disrupt their work, the ants stay focused and the grasshopper, when winter comes, learns a lesson about work. The teacher armadillo and her young students are on a field trip, moseying along. No one's in a hurry as they explore their surroundings but when the teacher shows them the road, she turns downright mean. The young armadillos learn why (no armadillos are hurt in the making of this play). In the final tale, a lion is terrorizing everyone. He's killing the animals for fun now and not just food. The clever rabbit thinks up a plan which will save the rest of the wildlife.

Autorenporträt

Marian Scadden reads a lot, and likes to write in theater-esque and other genres, such as Young Adult fantasy, Middle Grade stuff, and Picture Books. She loves playing board games with her family, especially when she wins. Marian graduated in Children's Theatre from Brigham Young University decades ago, more or less. Writing books and plays is not quite as long as that. She started writing plays so she wouldn't have to pay royalties when directing them; she started writing picture books to see if she could and she advanced to novels in 2009 when she participated in National Novel Writing Month. It's kind of exciting.
