Publisher's Description

▼▲

Share this simple, funny farmyard tale with your preschooler, who will love the energy.

"Hurry! Hurry!" Rooster crows. The crowd gets bigger, faster, and noisier as all the animals follow. "Ready! Ready!" "Go! Go!"

The animals rush to the barn. Will they be in time to greet the tiniest new member of the farm family?

Now in a board book edition, Eve Bunting's simple, energetic text and Jeff Mack's vibrant illustrations come together in a joyful, welcoming book that's perfect for preschoolers.

"The sweet story is filled with movement and excitement as the animals happily rush to witness the event. Acrylic spreads are bright and cheerful, and the simple text is done in bold, colorful type with exclamation marks galore. This charming story celebrates the anticipation of a new life and its long-awaited appearance." (School Library Journal)
