What a wonderful presentation of the traditional English cumulative rhyme. It's fun to look at and fun to read aloud--and also a great way to introduce young children to farm animals and the sounds they make. It all begins with the kitty: I had a cat and the cat pleased me, and I fed my cat under yonder tree. Cat goes fiddle-i-fee. Before long, each animal is enjoying its meal, and expressing very loud appreciation. The horse neighs, the pig goes griffy-gruffy, the sheep baa-baas, and the cow moos in a happy cacophonous chorus. And the pictures pulse with color; everything's in astonishingly brilliant reds, glowing greens, shimmering blues, and sunshine yellows as dynamic as the chattering creatures themselves. Kids will want to read this over and over again.
