Excerpt from the Book:
"Who finds this rare box will be lucky, indeed,
For inside this box is a Bippolo Seed!
Plant it and wish! And then count up to three!
Whatever you wish for, whatever it be
Will sprout and grow out of a Bippolo Tree!"
For inside this box is a Bippolo Seed!
Plant it and wish! And then count up to three!
Whatever you wish for, whatever it be
Will sprout and grow out of a Bippolo Tree!"

My Thoughts:
It's a short audiobook, all stories, and the foreword lasts less than an hour, but I would say it is worth listening to anyway. These are excellent short stories in the style of dr. Seuss: about how a rabbit tricked a bear, what happens when you give too much food to a goldfish, how a cat and a duck got greedy, about imagination, and more.
The narrators were all excellent, and they all present us with these rhymed stories in a fun way.
