Scherer captures the hearts of children with his whimsical characters and witty writing style, while teaching young students that being different is okay. Simon, a Cinnamon Border canary who loves to sing, and his pal, Barklee, a terrier dog with a mischievous personality, have decided to travel the world looking for adventure. Along the way, they meet new friends, try new foods, and do some sightseeing. In each country they visit, they have a tour guide -- in England, it is Nigel, an elderly sheepdog who thoroughly enjoys showing off the landmarks and famous sites of his beloved country. In France, they meet Ratatouille, a French sewer rat who gives them an exciting tour of his favorite spots, including a visit to the Old Opera House where the duo unknowingly give the Phantom a musical treat. In Germany, they visit the site of the Berlin Wall and learn some lessons about freedom. Most importantly, on their journey they gain a positive understanding and respect for different people and different cultures.
