This charming story was one of the many folk tales collected by the Brothers Grimm. It tells the story of animals who have grown too old to be of help around the farm, so they set off to become the next great musicians in the town of Bremen. However they run in to a few adventures on their way. Its a story of teamwork and finding new purpose when life doesn't work like you plan.
This edition is illustrated by one of our favorite German children's writers, Gerda Muller. Hardback.
