When the children go back to school, the animals on the farm have nothing to do. That is...until they discover the library. But when Cow, Pig, Horse, and Goat try to check out a book, they are met with a very puzzled librarian. Why can't she understand? It is only when Hen gives it a try — «book! Book! BOOK!» — that the animals finally get what they want! «Young kids...[will] love making all the animal noises and recognize how it feels when an adult doesn't understand.» — Booklist
