Click, Clack, Moo recently won the Caldecott award, and is very deserving of that honor. I enthusiastically endorse it for your children aged from 2 through 6. This book will be considered a classic children's tale within five years.Many great children's books start from the point of view of role reversals. You take objects or animals and make them be like humans. But no one could have developed a funnier idea along those lines than having typing cows who lead a general strike on a farm."Farmer Brown has a problem. His cows like to type.""All day long he hears. Click, clack, moo. Click, clack, moo. Clickety clack, moo.""At first, he couldn't believe his ears."But it gets worse. One day he receives a typewritten note that says:"Dear Farmer Brown,The barn is very cold at night. We'd like some electric blankets.Sincerely,The Cows"Farmer Brown makes the mistake of treating the cows like cows. He tells them, "No way." They type up a note and put it on the barn door. "Sorry. We're closed. No milk today."The next day, another note appeared."Dear Farmer Brown,The hens are cold too. They'd like electric blankets.Sincerely,The Cows"The negotiations continue toward a hilarious conclusion.Each of these letters to Farmer Brown cannot help but inspire gales of uncontrollable laughter among your tykesters. The ending may actually cause laughter-induced pain because it is so hilarious.The illustrations are particularly appealing. Ms. Lewin has drawn them to be large in features, vivid, bold, and colorful. They make the story more intense by capturing both a sense of movement and the personality of the characters.
