Old MacDonald Had a Coo - (Picture Kelpies) (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A lively and chaotic Scottish twist on the much-loved nursery rhyme.

'Old MacDonald had a coo

ee-I-ee-I-oo

She loved that coo; it loved her too!

ee-I-ee-I-oo

Old MacDonald's pig dances a jig, her bees make her sneeze, her goose flaps about the hoose and her sheep jumps in the compost heap. Old MacDonald loves her noisy, messy menagerie, but sometimes she just wants some peace and quiet!

Kate McLelland, illustrator of best-selling Scottish picture book There was a Wee Lassie Who Swallowed a Midgie, brings a host of favorite farm animals to life in her bold and colorful style. This quirky and fun picture book is a unique adaptation of the classic rhyme 'Old MacDonald Had a Farm'.
