Squeal and Squawk: Barnyard Talk

(4) K-3 Illustrated by David Slonim. "Our rooster has terrible luck. / He has fallen in love with a duck. / But the rooster can't swim, / And the chances are slim / That his sweetheart will ever speak CLUCK." These eighteen poems about farm animals are friendly and funny, but the rhymes occasionally falter or fall flat. The pen-and-ink line of the cartoony acrylics is stronger than the poetry.
