A delightfully silly, good-natured parody of the recording phenomenon Chant and other works that put Gregorian music on the charts, Grunt is a book and CD set that combines Sandra Boynton''s inimitable way with farm animals and a satirical sense that comes deliciously out of left barn.
In a far-off valley live the obeisant Domoinkan Pigs of Snouto Domoinko de Silo. Here, twelve times a day, these simple swine grunt the unadorned, ethereal music of Pigorian Chant (translation included). For occasions from the first mealtime (Op-slay ime-tay. Et''s lay eat-ay. Um yay, um-yay.) to Nox Animaliae, when they''re joined by all the animals in a harmony that dates back before the time of Caesar Hogustus, the pigs chant.
Listen, look at Sandra Boynton''s delicious illustrations, and laugh. It''s what to play whenever you''re feeling disgruntled.
