Jack Rabbit says it's a great day to make tumbleweed stew, but who wants to eat that? With a bit of ingenuity, Jack soon has everyone from Armadillo to Vulture adding something to his delectable stew....

In this cumulative rhyming story, a cat runs after a mouse in the middle of the night, giving rise to a more complicated chase....

The sun hasn't even risen, yet the mouse is awake, the cat's awake,
the dog's awake, and soon they're joined by a dogcatcher, a bank
robber, a policeman, and a grocer in a wild chase that takes place all in one hour!...
