   Children's Publishing :: Literacy :: Joe Rock & Friends Book Set 3 - CD & DVD BN103

  Joe Rock & Friends Book Set 3 - CD & DVD BN103 #536
Joe Rock & Friends Book Set 3 - CD & DVD BN103  This set combines state of the art 3D graphics with captivating and interconnected stories, multiple reading levels, multi-language and translation features, read-to-me capabilities, sing-along-songs, and special effects.

Stories in this set (CD & DVD) include:

1. "The Painters In The Park" - Joe and Stan are practicing a song, but Stan doesn't want to practice because it is too hard. Then Kate comes in to take them to the park to see the painters. We meet Kate's big brother Mike who is a wheelchair basketball player and his friend Sue, a mouth painter. Then Joe and Stan try to be mouth painters too.
2. "Inukshuk Joe" - It is the late 1800's and Joe is in the high Arctic and is part of an 'Inukshuk' - a stone man built by the people of the north. A young boy takes Joe from the Inukshuk, which is something he should not do. The boys grandfather finds Joe and we learn how Joe saved his life when he was a young hunter.
3. "Kate's Birthday Surprise" - We meet Hector the Hampshire Chef, a wind-up toy from the 1950's. Hector's breakdowns and Stan's meddling soon turn the birthday preparations into mayhem and Joe disappears.
