(3) K-3 When Mr. McTeague switches chores with Mrs. McTeague he thinks he'll get a day of rest. Instead he finds himself being dragged through a burning house by an angry cow. In this boisterous retelling of a Norwegian tale, the husband and wife are homesteaders in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Glass's hilarious crosshatched illustrations pile on the chaos.
