A SMILE PROVOKING RHYMING TALE

Farmer Crabby Cratchitt isn't as intimidating as she sounds - you might be a little grumpy too if you couldn't sleep because your hen was clucking all the time. The easy rhythm of E-I-E-I-0 and hilarious illustrations follow everything Crabby does in order to keep her hen from clucking constantly, even when she's confronted by dozens of new eggs and the prospect of millions of cheeps added to the clucking. When a sly fox intrudes, Crabby must make some quick decisions. Youngsters will enjoy the familiar sounds, lilting rhymes, and the funny fixes Crabby finds herself in.
