In the third adventure of Frank Hazards fabulist Sow Belly series, Herb the Worm is determined to discover why rehearsals for a play at the Live Stock Company have been sabotaged. He seeks out Sow Belly to help him investigate the crime and with the assistance of other earnest farm-animal friends Herb and Sow Belly resolve to unravel the riddle and to make sure that the play Hedda Gobbler will premier as scheduled in only a few hours. They race against time and they dont have many clues to guide their quest. As suspensefully crafted as its predecessors in the Sow Belly series, SOW BELLY AND THE THEATER comprises an adroit blend of satire and mystery, humor and adventure, with vivid illustrations and an eccentric array of poignant and sinister farm-yard characters that will intrigue and irresistibly fascinate both children and adults. A fabulist journey, a fabulous experience.
