Paperback. In this fresh and funny picture book by children's literature scholar and educator Megan Lambert, new rooster Clyde learns that being himself is the best way to stand out on the farm.Clyde is the new rooster at Sunrise Farm. But he's having trouble fitting in and replacing Larry-the beloved rooster whose wake-up calls were legendary. The cow, the gaggle of hens, and the sheep reminisce about Larry while poor Clyde fails to croon the farmyard awake with the same finesse. Clyde attempts to win over the farm by wearing an elaborate costume and putting on a show like Larry was known to do, but in the end, Clyde realizes that imitating Larry is not the way to succeed.AwardsSELECTION 2016 - Cooperative Children's Book Center ChoicesSELECTION 2016 - Bank Street College Best Children's Book of the YearHONOR 2016 - Ezra Jack Keats Book Award Clyde the rooster is a little scrawny, so he is having a hard time trying to measure up to his predecessor on the farm--but with a little help from a friendly goose he may find a crow of his own.
