Click, Clack, Moo Cows That Type by Doreen Cronin


Click, Clack, Moo Cows That Type is a Caldecott Honor Book that is written by Doreen Cronin and illustrated by Betsy Lewin. This book is the authors first picture book. She later wrote Duck for President which is also a book that I enjoy reading to young students (especially around election time).

The book begins telling the reader about Farmer Browns problem. His cows like to type and all day long he hears "Click, clack, moo." The farm animals begin typing requests of Farmer Brown and leaving them on the barn door. One request is for electric blankets because the animals type that the barn is very cold at night. They also leave notes telling him that they are closed for the day (no milk, no eggs)! Farmer brown wises up to their tricks and the story ends with a funny note from the ducks.

If you enjoy this story the Caldecott Honor Winner also has a few other children's stories that you may want to check out such as:
Giggle, Giggle, Quack; Wiggle; A Busy Day at the Farm; and Stretch, just to name a few.
