  • Showsy Growsy's Musical Fracasee

    Allyson Louise

    Join hoity-toity Showsy Growsy alongside her friends Bubbledegook and Bubbledegeek for a great day of melody-making.


    The bright blonde girl who knows how to do just about anything turns out to be quite the fusspot when a sing-along song finds her picking and choosing a handful of select friends to count as in.


    Meanwhile that pair of predictable pesties, her sometime friends, the knockabout twins Bubbledegook and Bubbledegeek, settle for a musical day of loutish laughs, learning all about Showsy Growsy’s wonderful range of colorful instruments, drumming up a raucous day of ragbag rip-roaring fun of their own.


    Getting Showsy Growsy to change her mind, though, isn’t easy. And trying to get the twins to join in and play a song at just the right time only seems to strum up more and more disharmony.


    Musically speaking, Showsy Growsy, Bubbledegook, and Bubbledegeek bang together one noisy, mishmashy day of rowdy rhythm and blues!
