A charming old English cumulative song about a farmboy feeding the barnyard animals is given a fresh treatment with the lively and animated ink-and-watercolour illustrations of Paul Galdone.
The upbeat, catchy rhyme also features animal sounds that are not exactly mainstream — “Hen goes chimmy-chuck, chimmy-chuck / Cat goes fiddle-i-fee!” — but that’s part of the reason why it’s such fun to read aloud, especially at turbo speed! The kids can’t get enough of it!
