Abstract

See the Teacher's Book listed under the same title and dated 1994? (since I can find no date mentioned in it). Read my comments there. Among my comments there I mentioned that I would be trying to get the play-book. I got it! TMCM may ask us to believe quite a bit when it gives the dapper town mouse Kensington his own butler, maid, and cook. The script recommends a balloon underneath the costume of the frog in OF. In OF frogs sing of river bubbles popping, and the star frog claims that he is on top-pop-pop of the world (14). The script gives the fox in FS some good slips of the tongue, as when he says that he has a sudden urge to be entertained . . . Oh, how silly of me . . . I mean of course TO ENTERTAIN (19). He continues I asked myself . . . Who would be the most likely . . . er, likeable guest . . . . They do indeed, as I suspect, finish as friends, but their reconciliation may strain our credulity a bit (23). In TH, the hare crosses the finish-line not knowing that the tortoise has preceded him. The race is set in the first day of spring's emerging. I am delighted to have found this script, not least of all because it helps to make sense of the teacher's book I already had.
