Click, Clack, Strike!
Farmer Brown is the owner of a large farm that houses a variety of animals, including cows, hens, and ducks. One day, he noticed his cows were busy typing something all day long. Curious, Mr.Brown went to the barn to check on them. To his surprise, he found a notice on the barn door. There was a demand from the cows for an electric blanket to keep them warm during the chilly nights. Unfortunately, Farmer Brown refused to fulfill their request. The next day, the cows went on strike by putting up another notice that read “closed for milk.”
We picked this book for its title. This book is a contemporary and more streamlined version of George Orwell’s Animal Farm. The story is told in a humorous tone, making it appropriate for children of all ages. The brightly colored illustrations perfectly complemented the plot.
