FRU-FRU: THE NINE MONTHS

NINE MONTHS

Do you know how you were born? Well, many mummies and daddies don't know it too. In France, for example, parents claim that their children are found in a cabbage patch. In England children are supposed to be sold in special shops. They are exhibited on different shelves and embellished with colourful bows. Here we say that storks bring children to their parents. The show Nine months wants to make this clear for once and all – all babies, English and French, poor and rich, white and black, are born into this world the same way. But first they have to spend nine happy, exciting and sometimes a bit rough months in their mummies' tummies. Our baby hero Miška goes through all of them.
