About
the Book
Cows give us milk, for ice cream and cheese. But
my dog gives me kisses, and tail wags ... and fleas. Welcome to the barnyard!
Eighteen rollicking poems explore the lives of farm animals. From a limerick
about a rooster in love with a duck to an ode to the lazy life of a cow, these
comically illustrated rhymes take a humorous look at our squealing and squawking
animal friends.
