Giggle, Giggle, Quack

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this hilarious companion to the Caldecott Honor book Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type, Farmer Brown leaves his brother, Bob, in charge while he goes on vacation. He gives Bob detailed notes of what to do, and warns him, "But keep an eye on Duck. He's trouble."

Bob follows the notes exactly — not realizing that Duck has rewritten them — so he orders pizza with anchovies (the hens' favorite) on pizza night, lets the cows choose the movie on movie night, and uses Farmer Brown's good towels on the pigs' bath night. Did anyone hear...

"Giggle, giggle, quack, giggle, moo, giggle, oink?"

Synopsis:

Farmer Brown is going on vacation. He asks his brother, Bob, to take care of the animals. "But keep an eye on Duck. He's trouble."

Bob follows the instructions in Farmer Brown's notes exactly. He orders pizza with anchovies for the hens, bathes the pigs with bubble bath, and lets the cows choose a movie.

Is that giggling he hears?

Giggle, giggle,

quack, giggle, moo,

giggle, oink...

The duck, the cows, the hens, and the pigs are back in top form in this hilarious follow-up to the beloved Caldecott Honor Book Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type.
