This fantasy book has animals dancing, singing, and playing instruments with a little boy who stayed up late when he couldn't fall asleep. Of course animals can't really do these things, but for the sake of the main character, it was great for him since he couldn't sleep. The author reveals to us that the little boy is the main character through words and interactions with others. Media:Water color and charcoal

This book is an example of fantasy because a scare crow can’t come alive and play a fiddle and animals don’t dance but it doesn’t make the story unbelievable or to far fetched.

Great for teaching different cultural dances and understanding the south. Grades 4-7 ( )

The words sing as much as the pictures. We never get tired of the rhyme, or the illustrations. This is a family favorite for the last five years running. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0805007997, Paperback)

In an old farmhouse, bathed in the light of a full moon, a young boy creeps to his bedroom window and looks outside. Was that a voice he just heard, or the hooting of an owl? There it is again:Come a little closer...Come a little closer...Listen to the night...There's music in the air...Beckoned by the voice, the boy sneaks downstairs, out the door, and walks toward the barn. As he gets closer he hears the sweet sound of a country fiddler and the rhythmic thumping of dancing feet. But who could possibly be having a barn dance in the middle of the night?
