Old Macdonald Had a Farm (Classic Books) (Classic Books with Holes Board Book)

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.

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

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.

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

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!
