Fall is a great time to read about farms—or visit one if you are so lucky!
Here’s what you’ll need:
Here’s what you do:
with your child and hunt for the rhyming words.A critter wandered onto a farm, not meaning to cause anyone harm. He poked his head in every cranny and nook, simply because he wanted a look.
The goose honked, “Pee-yew!” as she passed through.
The pig squealed, “Oh, my!” and ran into his sty.
The duck quacked, “Oh bother!” and waddled into the water.
Along came a lad named Matt, who grabbed up the smelly cat.
“Come with me,” he said with a smile. “This will only take a while.”
Eager to give the cat a good scrub, Matt found some soap, a brush, and a tub.
“I’ll give you a bath,” he said with a grin, “and then you’ll smell better again.”
Matt scrubbed and brushed, and when he was done, the critter had shrunk and was not having fun.
Out came the farmer’s wife, who got the shock of her life. She yelled and fussed at poor old Matt, who had to free the smelly cat. The brush and tub were thrown out with the junk, for Matt had just given a bath to a skunk.
