Folklore and Fairytales… Bremen Town Musicians

Folklore and Fairytales. They hang out in the 398s, and often don’t get checked out, because parents/teachers don’t browse in that area. But these are fantastic books to share. Today, I’m sharing my favorite versions of The Bremen Town Musicians. They’re all a little bit different! But all share in that fantastic story.

When a donkey, a dog, a cat, and a rooster are no longer wanted by their masters, they decide to run away and become musicians in Bremen Town. There they discover a warm little cabin, but find that robbers occupy it! Will the four friends plan work to scare the robbers away?
