These three out of print children's stories are put together in this book with cute illustrations.

Cyrano the Crow does imitations of other birds and thinks he is better than the man on television doing the same thing. When he goes to the TV station to appear on a show, he does remarkably well until he is asked to caw like a crow.

Dash the lazy daschhund is sent out to work and help support his family. He gets a job delivering messages and does such a good job, he is called Dash the Flash. He works very hard until the spring when he finally takes some time off. He realizes the value of working hard to support his wife and new family.

The dove and the turtle are both lost and become friends to help one another. When a storm hits they get separated. Dove ends up on a lovely island where she meets another dove and they eventually have babies. Dove and Turtle meet up again and the families become fast friends.

Cute stories that demonstrate 3 lessons for life.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. ( )
