Caldecott상을 비롯해서 수많은 도서상을 받은 명작 그림책 "Click, Clack, Moo Cows That Type"을 축약없이 원문의 글과 그림 그대로 수록한 리더북입니다.

브라운씨 농장에서 믿지 못할 일이 벌어졌어요, 축사에 있는 젖소들이 타자기를 치네요. 하루종일 토닥토닥 음~메, 토닥토닥 음~메... 어느날 브라운씨는 축사에 갔다가 젖소들이 타지기로 써서 문밖에 붙여놓은 메모지를 발견했어요. 젖소들이 밤에는 너무 추우니 전기 담요를 달라고 하는군요. 브라운씨는 어이가 없어서 젖소들의 요구를 묵살했지요. 그러자 젖소들은 "Sorry. We're close. No milk today."라는 글을 타자기로 쳐서 문밖에 붙여놓고는 파업을 시작했어요. 다음날에는 축사안에 있는 암탉들도 전기 담요를 요구하며 동참을 했어요. 오리가 브라운씨와 축사안의 동물들 간을 오가며 중재를 합니다...

큰 소리로 읽고 마음껏 웃을 수 있는 재미있고 기발한 이야기입니다. 마지막에 중재자였던 오리가 벌이는 반전도 재미있어요.

Book Description
Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin's Caldecott Honor-winning book is available as an individual board book for the first time!

Farmer Brown has a problem. His cows like to type. All day long he hears:

Click, clack, moo.
Click, clack, moo.
Click, clack, moo.

But Farmer Brown's problems REALLY begin when his cows start leaving him notes...Come join the fun as a bunch of literate cows turn Farmer Brown's farm upside-down! This package includes a paperback book along with a CD of country music star Randy Travis reading this New York Times bestseller!



Booklist
Lewin's wild line-and-watercolor cartoons are perfectly suited to this barnyard farce about animals that go on strike to demand better working conditions. The cows find an old typewriter in the barn, and to the farmer's fury, they type messages to him: "Dear Farmer Brown. The barn is very cold at night. We'd like some electric blankets. Sincerely, The Cows." When he refuses their request, they put up a notice: "Sorry. We're closed. No milk today." The hens are cold, too, so they join the cows--no eggs, either. There are ultimatums, emergency meetings, and a hilarious surprise ending. Today's preschoolers may have to be told about antique clackety typewriters, but they'll love the slapstick of the domesticated animals who get the farmer to toe the line. The thickly outlined pictures extend the fun, with closeups of the frenzied boss, the stalwart cows, and the hens cozy under their plugged-in blankets. Then there are the ducks . .



Publishers Weekly
Plucky barnyard denizens unite to improve their working conditions in this hilarious debut picture book from Cronin (appropriately enough, an attorney). Farmer Brown is dumbfounded when his cows discover an old typewriter in the barn and begin experimenting ("All day long he hears click, clack, moo. Click, clack, moo. Clickety clack moo"). Things really get out of hand when the cows began airing their grievances. Lewin (Araminta's Paint Box) conveys the fellow's shock as he reads: "Dear Farmer Brown, The barn is very cold at night. We'd like some electric blankets. Sincerely, The Cows." When Farmer Brown denies the cows' request, the bovine organizers go on strike. Through the use of the man's shadow, Lewin communicates his rage: the straw in his hat creates the appearance of his hair on end. With help from a neutral duck mediator, the exasperated Farmer Brown finally makes concessions. But, much to his dismay, the cows are not the only creatures that can type. Cronin humorously turns the tables on conventional barnyard dynamics; Lewin's bold, loose-lined watercolors set a light and easygoing mood that matches Farmer Brown's very funny predicament. Kids and underdogs everywhere will cheer for the clever critters that calmly and politely stand up for their rights, while their human caretaker becomes more and more unglued.
