Customer Reviews

Fun time at the Farm

Old MacDonald is quite the guy. Gets his wife to do all the work while he has fun. Definite adult humor, but will be enjoyed by all.

Old Macdonald book

This is one of my son's favorite books! He loves to sing a long with me when we're reading it.

A great way to teach animals, sounds, and love of reading

We like this book because each page reveals a new animal that was hiding on Old MacDonald's farm. Each page also reveals the noise that animal makes right along with the famous kids' song. The cutouts, hidden animals, escalating noise on the farm, and the farmer's increasing discomfort make for a fun read. At the very end, a whole new slew of animals and noises are presented, just in case you still have breath in you to keep on singing. The illustrations are fantastic. They are fun, colorful, and present animals behaving in pretty funny ways. This is a repeat read, as so many kids' books are.

What fun

My daughter has learned several animal sounds thanks to this book. She loves the bright pictures and the song. We read this one often.

What a great book!

This is a terriffic book for use in the music classroom, and at home. As a book that can be either sung or read: it is versatile. It's large size and colorful illustrations draw kids attention. I have personally found it to be very effective with my kindergarten through third grade students. I highly reccommend it to anyone looking for a good book for younger kids that can be sung or read!
