Margaret Wise Brown has turned prose into poetry with this beautifully-written
children's story about a day in the life of animals
By the big red barn
In the great green field,
There was a pink pig
Who was learning to squeal.
There were horses and sheep and goats and geese--and a jaunty
old scarecrow leaning on his hoe. And they all lived together
by the big red barn. In joyous and exuberant Pictures by Felicia
Bond lovingly evokes Margaret Wise Brown's simple, rhythmic text
about the cycle of a day on a farm, where a family of animals
peacefully plays and sleeps. In the barnyard there are roosters
and cows, horses and goats, and a pink piglet who is learning
to squeal.
