Parents' Guide to Rooster Doodle-Doo

The villagers of St. Victor are fed up with the mayor's rooster, whose crow wakes them up every day promptly at 4 a.m. After a brief bout of insomnia that leads to a few middle-of-the-night wake-up calls, the villagers have had enough. So when the mayor unveils a golden statue of his prized pet, they demand a quick exit for the rooster. When the mayor of a neighboring village offers to trade his lucky donkey for the noisy bird, the villagers are thrilled, and, against his better judgment, the mayor trades away his prized rooster. Now able to rest peacefully, the villagers get used to a life of laziness, spending their days swimming in the mill pond, drinking lemonade, and playing golf. But when the town runs out of bread and the neighboring town starts picking up the slack, Florence the baker and Lucien the carpenter realize the importance of the rooster and concoct a plan to get him back.
