Episode synopsis
It's the day of the King's coronation and everyone's going to town. Young Gilligren sets off with sixpence to make himself rich. But he spends the money and is left with only blackbirds which, by chance, are just what's needed at the palace. (The episode retells the nursery rhyme of "Sing a Song of Sixpence." The story was adapted from the tale of "Sing a Song o' Sixpence" in L. Frank Baum's "Mother Goose in Prose.")
