From the publisher (source: The Internet Book List): Pioneers dance, goats promenade, and pigs pirouette in this whimsical poem about dancing and fun on the pioneer trail. In lyrical verse, author Rick Walton tells a story to delight both children and adults. with its catchy rhythms and unusual rhymes, it is especially fun to read aloud. Brad Teare's colorful illustrations tantalize the imagination as lizards jig with prairie dogs and grizzly bears join in a line dance. Entertaining and imaginative, this story gives children a new insight into pioneer travels--in addition to the hard work and trials in crossing the plains, the pioneers also had fun!
