About this listen
This is a children's fantasy book.
A mischievous cat tries to convince the other pets that they have no heartbeat and are dying, so he can bury them in dirt. The family is planning a vacation and the dogs must get their shots for it. Rambo, one of the dogs, runs away from the vet and takes the other dogs to a farm where they are invited to a hay ride. The short children find a magical garden at the farm during the ride. The fruit and veggies come alive at night. At last, the family goes on the fun vacation.
This book has both educational and religious overtones.

A Penguin Classic. First published in 1938, this volume of stories collected with the encouragement of his longtime editor Pascal Covici serves as a wonderful introduction to the work of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck. Set in the beautiful Salinas Valley of California, where simple people farm the land and struggle to find a place for themselves in the world, these stories reflect Steinbeck’s characteristic interests: The tensions between town and country, laborers and owners, past and present.

A Penguin Classic. First published in 1938, this volume of stories collected with the encouragement of his longtime editor Pascal Covici serves as a wonderful introduction to the work of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck. Set in the beautiful Salinas Valley of California, where simple people farm the land and struggle to find a place for themselves in the world, these stories reflect Steinbeck’s characteristic interests: The tensions between town and country, laborers and owners, past and present.
