Dimitri runs away from home, taking suitcases full of puppets and toys, the ‘friends’ he cannot bear to leave behind. At the crossroads, he must decide to go ‘This Way. That Way’ or ‘Back Home’!
Hungry and alone, Dimitri opens the suitcases and out pour his ‘friends’ to tell magical tales of adventure, understanding, friendship and courage in the face of new experiences. |
Why are the Sun and the Moon arguing?
Who is that floating above the rooftops?
And why does the dancing frog sound like a sheep?

As stories unfold
and
songs are sung
we learn of the many
ways we ‘GROW!’ as we get
a little bit older
and
a little bit taller!
