Award-winning Louisiana children's musician and author Johnette Downing shares with Confetti Park this marvelous trickster tale about generosity.
A long time ago, the Oyster was
not only generous and kind; he was also the keeper of all the gems
in the world. Whenever any type of creature would come to him in
need, the Oyster would share his jewels without hesitation. One
day, a very greedy snake hatches a plan to shift the balance of
wealth in the sea. But he's in for a surprise when he tests the
limits of the Oyster's generosity.
