Old MacDonald's farm is falling apart! The piggies' sty is sinking in the mud and it's raining on the cows...
What will Old MacDonald do? Surely he won't move the animals to a nearby fancy hotel?
The cows would order grass in the restaurant, the pigs would splash in the pool and the sheep would have a pillow-fight. It could all just be ... TOO MUCH FUN!
From the author of Bunnies on the Bus comes an unexpected, action-packed and utterly silly twist on children's all-time favourite nursery rhyme that will have little ones rolling around in laughter, hollering "E-I-E-I-O!"

Bericht
There are, of course, plenty of chances to join in with the E-I-E-I-Os and to make the various animal noises - so it's very much a sharing kind of book.
I love the fact that this is a big, generously-sized book where the bold and colourful illustrations have been given plenty of space to pack lots of detail into each of the double-spread pages.
