Davy Crockett Gets Hitched

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Megan Lloyd. Davy Crockett's "wildcat" dance moves (thanks to a thornbush burr in his derriere) threaten to upstage the spring frolic honoree, Miss Sally Ann Thunder Ann Whirlwind. The "angeliferous" Sally resorts to sabotage (spilling butter, pickles, and other items), but Davy's nonstop dancing (and cooking!) finally impresses her. Lloyd's pine-needle-bordered oil paintings play up the humor and hyperbole in Miller's tall tale. Bib.
