Introduces the serious and fun activities of students just starting school.

After being kidnapped by outlaws, Antonio, an eight-year old boy is asked to tell them a story which he makes up as he goes along.

Five beautifully adapted stories that encourage a love for reading for the pre- or early reader. In the beloved classic The Napping House, Granny and all the critters in her house pile on her bed for a nap ... until a little flea causes a big stir. Somebody's got an itch! Other stories include Each Peach Pear Plum; Drummer Hoff; Bear Snores On; Wild About Books.
