About this audiobook

Excerpt: ""Take to the water, quick!" shouted Doctor Muskrat. "Climb a tree!" advised Chatter Squirrel, balancing on the tip end of a limb. And they had the Woodsfolk so excited they didn't know what to do. Most of them couldn't climb if they wanted to, and mighty few of them like to swim. So those who were there tried to run away, and those who weren't came to see what was going on. Tommy Peele's woods were just alive with scuttling and fluttering. All because Louie Thomson had brought a lantern to light his party with. He had brought all sorts of things to eat, too, and he planned to sleep all night in the Woods and Fields, in a tent made of one of his mother's blankets. Of course Louie couldn't think what was the matter with the Woodsfolk. But Tommy Peele's big furry dog, Watch, who was with him, knew well enough. He sat there with his tongue out, laughing at them. When Tad Coon saw Watch laughing he got over being frightened, and then he was curious. He waded out of the pond and came over to look at the little sputtery flame dancing inside the lantern. Of course he thought it was a bug. Most everything that hasn't leaves or fur or feathers is a bug to Tad Coon. Bugs do themselves up in very funny packages sometimes before they're all through hatching. He put out his handy-paw to catch it."
