Publisher Description
They can stand in line (sort of), use indoor voices (perhaps), and are capable of sharing (rumor has it), so the Click Clack critters are ready for school…but is school ready for them? A charming addition to the award-winning Click, Clack series from the New York Times bestselling and Caldecott winning team who brought you Click, Clack, Moo and Click, Clack, Surprise!
Farmer Brown has been invited to be a guest at the elementary school’s Farm Day! The animals excitedly practice their best classroom behavior: standing quietly in line, using their inside voices, and learning how to share. But then they find out that farm animals aren’t actually allowed in school (who knew they were considered a health code violation?!). Rules are rules, so Farmer Brown goes to school solo—or so he thinks…for while our favorite barnyard bunch don’t get high marks in rules, they do excel in disguise.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
When Farmer Brown receives a letter requesting that he and the farm animals visit Dinkelmeyer Elementary School, he is excited: "He had not been to school in a very, very long time!" The cows, chickens, and pigs are eager as well, until Farmer Brown tells them "School is very serious," and they are not to moo, cluck, or oink, which dampens their enthusiasm. Things begin "quiet, serious, and calm" as the visitors arrive, but all bets are off when the recess bell rings: "And the pigs got oinky and holler, hoot, hollered!" A conclusion shows Duck behind the principal's desk. While the end may raise questions (was Duck the principal all along?), readers will grasp the idea that there is room at school for being serious and having fun. Ages 4 8.
