A Sick Day for Amos McGee

A rousing new musical based on the Caldecott Medal-winning children’s book. Amos McGee is as kindly and conscientious a zookeeper as you will find. Day after day he bonds with each of his friends: running races with the tortoise, spending quiet time with the timid penguin, sharing a handkerchief with the sniffling elephant. When one day Amos himself feels under the weather and remains home in bed, the animals must decide what they can do to return the favor.
