'Phil Cummings has written a hilarious rollicking story that follows cheeky farmyard animals and their antics when the farmer goes to bed.

'The farmer was tired at the end of the day, so he went to bed and snored away. But not the animals, they took a chance, to have some fun, to have a dance.  The cows kicked their hooves in time.  Clickety clack clickety clack. The sheep danced in a crooked line. Tippety tap tippety tap. The chicken’s feathers tickled the crowd. Flippety flap flippety flap. The ducks were wild, the ducks were loud. QUACKETY QUACK QUACKETY QUACK!'

'A delightful story with simple rhythm which centres on a family spending the day together out and about. Strolling to the park they say hello to a neighbour, marvel at the orange bus, wave to a rubbish truck and point to the ducks waddling by. Look outside. See the Sun. Let’s go now, have some fun. Puppy dog, butterfly. Aeroplane, cloudy sky. A story that focuses on everyday experiences and surroundings providing lots of opportunity for talk between parent and child.'
