Who's Knocking at the Door?

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Lee Chapman. When an elderly couple is kind to some farm animals seeking shelter from the cold night, the animals repay their kindness handsomely. This meandering, nonsensical story takes many folktale elements--talking animals, an evil farmer, robbers, and foolish but kind protagonists--and combines them in an original tale. Chapman's boldly colored paintings are as outrageous as the story.
