Description: The passionate and musical moose Noah is not allowed to participate in Moose Jaw Idol &#x2014; all because his jaw is too big! Driven by the inspiring music and careers of Canadian music stars such as Alanis Moosette, Noah is compelled to share his story with the townsfolk. Will the Moose Jaw Theatre finally allow him to participate? This story seeks to teach children about the right to equal treatment and freedom from discrimination on the basis of disability. Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on mental or physical disability.--Publisher's description.
