Rumbelow is a little boy with a great deal of energy so walking to his grandparent's house in town is no problem for him even though it is a long way. After his mother gives him a long list of very precise directions, he sets off. Although it is a very hot day, he is so happy that he feels the need to dance rather than just walk. Before long he meets a sad-faced farmer walking along with his sad-faced pig. The farmer moans that he will never get his lazy pig to market on such a hot day. However, Rumbelow has a suggestion:
'' 'Dance, dance, dance to the market!<br>Come on,' said Rumbelow, 'join in the jig;<br>Prancing along,<br>Singing a song -<br>
What better partners than farmer than pig?' ''
