Genre: Fantasy

Grade Level: K-1

Farmer Brown is going on vacation and so he asks his brother Bob to take care of his farm. He warns him to watch out for the duck. Bob follows all the instructions that his brother gave him all the while not realizing that the Duck is changing all of the notes to accommodate to him and his friends needs. The farmer calls Bob and hears the chuckling and comes racing back to the farm because he knows that the Duck is up to.

The illustrations are very colorful and fun. The watercolor pictures demonstrates the emotions of the animals and gives the book a very fun personality. They take up the entire page.

I could use this in the classroom to learn new vocabulary words. It can also demonstrate different animals and just to entertain the children.
