Beyond Old MacDonald: Funny Poems from Down on the Farm

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Eugenie Fernandes. Lighthearted but a bit uneven, these thirty rhyming poems will tickle the funny bones of children developing their language skills and wordplay ability. Subjects of the poems include a hoarse horse and a daredevil chicken who's anything but chicken. Bright, zippy pictures help support the verbal jokes. A list of the poems and the language skills they exemplify is appended.
