Old MacDonald Had an Apartment House

(3) K-3 This edition is slightly larger than the original, with a vertical rather than horizontal shape. Superintendent of an apartment building, Old MacDonald begins encouraging tenants to vacate their apartments so he can replace them with vegetables and farm animals. Barrett's pen-and-ink illustrations are quite funny, and only the plants and produce are colored, so they stand out in the drab building.
