Abstract
There are four pieces for the piano here to express the party the animals had in which the monkey danced, the camel danced, and the other animals reacted. As the beginning T of C makes clear, the four pieces are The Party, Monkey Dance, Camel Dance, and Riot. I notice that there is a suggestion just above the first staff for each piece. These are, respectively, merrily; smooth and agile; humorous, not fast; and with fury. Each piece has a large black-and-white illustration. The pieces are wordless, but there are a couple of prose lines before each song. The third of these four prose passages includes an extra as that confuses a sentence. The riot involves the other animals throwing things at the camel and chasing him out of the ring. By contrast with several other booklets in this series, there is no mention here of a record available for purchase.
