In the title song and story of this musical collection, a stuffed,
woolen puppy falls victim to famished mites after having been left at
home alone while his parents go to see an exhibit of humans at a local
park. Upon their return, they discover his red, soggy, cotton tail on
the floor and are faced with the challenge of putting him back together.
Lionel Daunais's lighthearted rendition of this song was a popular radio
favorite in French-speaking Canada in the 1950s. The additional 12 songs
in this storybook-music CD are off-the-wall fun for the whole family,
full of clever word play and many strange creatures, including a bird
who is part kangaroo and part rooster, a tortoise named Sue who goes
around town without a shell, and a hard-headed hammer who has gone
bonkers.
