Description

Adorable animals go for a glittering night at the theater in this hilarious picture book, a perfect read-aloud tale for very young readers.

A frog has no sparkle.

A poodle has no sparkle.

A pigeon has no sparkle.

Not to worry! A cape has sparkle, a crown has sparkle and boots have sparkle.

Some wily animals decide to hit the stage, leaving the actors without costumes. After the animals get their moment in the spotlight, chaos ensues . . . but luckily there are some chicks with sparkle to save the day.
