Down in the swamp where the cypress grows, Old Man Gator starts tappin’ his toes…Pretty soon, all the swamp animals are movin’ and swingin’ to Gator’s beat. Sing along with the river otter, bullfrog, dragonfly, and many other swamp animals as their music swells into a natural chorus of croaking, whirring, and buzzing, all brought to life by Ponder Goembel’s colored ink and acrylic-wash-paint illustrations. Yippity-yip!
