Jack and Remy's Bayou Band
Jack tap-tap-taps his paws as he imagines the wonder-ful music the creatures of the bayou can make. He can already hear the chank-a-chank of a rubboard and the thump-thump-thump of the drums,...
but forming a band that includes an alligator, a snake, some turtles, a bull-frog, and a possum isn’t always easy! First they must overcome their distrust of their fellow creatures to learn to work together.But what can these critters with a dream do to save themselves when danger surfaces on the bayou? When some poachers invade their home and try to capture their friends, the animals must come up with a plan. With a little perseverance and creativity, they create music that turns enemies into friends and unites all the residents of the bayou, even recruiting some unexpected allies along the way.
