Silly Sally is a very funny girl who gets to town by doing all kinds of ridiculous things with different animals. On her way to town she dances with a pig, plays leapfrog with a dog, sings with a loon, sleeps with a sheep, and more. Toward the end of the story, she meets Neddy Buttercup who tickles everyone to wake them up so they can finally get to town.
