Jeremy is at a birthday party and it is his turn to 'pin the tail on the donkey'. His attempts to locate the donkey take him all the way around the world before successfully returning and pinning the tail accurately. Jeremy's adventures lend themselves to sequencing activities and also to a simple lesson in geography as he treks across continents in search of the elusive donkey
