A classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale, re-imagined by renowned illustrator Gerda Muller, creator of USBBY-honored A Year in Our New Garden.
Four unlikely companions - a donkey, a dog, a cat and a rooster - leave behind their old lives and set off on an adventure. When night falls the friends find a cabin in the forest where they could rest and eat - if it wasn't home to a band of robbers!
