Young MacDonald

by David Milgrim

Young MacDonald had a farm. Ee-i-ee-i-o. And on that farm he made . . . A Hig! Ee-i-ee-i-o . A Hig (horse-pig!) that says "oink-neigh" is just one of Young MacDonald's silly animal creations. With his madcap machine, this junior scientist invents a barnyard of delightful animal pairings. It's all in good fun until the animals start an experiment of their own! Preschoolers will love to laugh and sing along with the ridiculous new rhymes, while their older siblings will appreciate the imaginative animal pairings. This mix-and-match twist on "Old MacDonald" is an infectious and hilarious sing-aloud.

My kids loved this book! Sung along to the music from "Old MacDonald," this is a great bedtime story. Young MacDonald has been busy making robotic animals--animals that are combinations from some of the old favorites! He's made a hig (horse and pig) and some deese (donkey and geese), and singing the chorus to the song with these unusual sounds is a real treat. Definitely a fun, imaginative book with great full-color illustrations. Reviewed by: Jennifer Wardrip, aka "The Genius"
