Click, Clack, Boo! A Tricky Treat

by Doreen Cronin

IL by Betsy Lewin

Halloween is a terrifying time for Farmer Brown, whose intellectual score comes in lower than any of the animals on his farm. When the farm animals party, each noise brings forth a nightmarish idea as to what’s making the “crunches, creaks, taps, and quackles. Quackle? Even Farmer Brown knows there’s something odd going on. Once again, Doreen Cronin uses the power of words (as seen in the sign pinned to the barn) to show that Farmer Brown’s animals are smarter than he.

PS I left this library book outside and it rained. But that’s okay. I wanted to buy it anyway.
