Reviews

PreS-Gr 2—Duck is preparing the cows, sheep, and pigs to enter the talent show at the county fair. While the cows and sheep are singing familiar tunes, the pigs have choreographed an interpretive dance. Duck is determined that they will win first place, so they rehearse every night. In the meantime, Farmer Brown is keeping an eye on them during the day, and at night all he hears is what appears to be snoring. Will Duck and his friends be able to win the contest without alerting Famer Brown? With their signature humor, Cronin and illustrator Betsy Lewin have crafted a silly tale for children to enjoy. Narrator George Guidall plays into that humor by including the asterisk items related to the rules and conditions of the prizes, complete with an announcer voice. If children listen carefully, they will even hear recognizable tunes coming from their favorite animals. Children will delight in this fun animal story, while adults will appreciate the humorous asides.—Elizabeth Elsbree, Krug Elementary School, Aurora, IL
