Om denne lydbog
Freddy Goes to Florida (originally published as To and Again) is the first of the Freddy the Pig adventures. In this installment, Freddy and his barnyard friends decide to go to Florida to escape the winter cold—never dreaming of the dangers, excitement, and new friends they would meet along the way. From horse-nappers to Washington Senators, from robbers to hungry alligators, the path to Florida (and home again) is filled with adventure.
