Ro, ro, the rattlin’ bog, the bog down in the valley-o! In an Irish peat bog, a rattlin’ (Irish slang for “wonderful”) tree contains a rattlin’ nest, which contains a rattlin’ egg, which contains a rattlin’ bird . all the way down to a seed of a brand-new rattlin’ tree. This traditional Irish tune, sung by a traditional Irish band, invites readers to join the lively fun and discover the bog's hidden treasures!
