Not many people know that Gregory wrote children’s books before he became famous for Wicked: The life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West. And he was just so good at it.

In a sing song voice to Old McDonald, the reader gets to sing the story of Crabby. So get your E-I-E-I-mi-mi-mi ready for a rhyming fun time.
