Jabuti the Trickster of the Rain Forest

Recently I was in a school play. It was called Jabuti the Trickster of the Rain forest. This was a school production, the music, and lines were written by last years forth graders. I assisted in making all of the costumes. As our director put it, "These costumes were made up of spit, hot glue, and LOTS of burnt finger. I was also part of the wonderful river!!!!! Our musical was about a trickster turtle who tricked many of the rain forest animals to teach them valuable lessons. When Thunder bird needed a new song bird for heaven turtle flies up on the cruel vultures back to play for the Queen. Vulture tricks Thunderbird into believing that he is playing the music, and when turtle tries to reveal stand up Vulture flicks him off of his back to the ground. To hear the rest of the story you'll have to get the book from the library. Thanks to our musical we did barely and school work last week, and avoided a spelling test. Pictures and coming as soon as I can get them.
