Old MacDonald’s Things That Go by Jane Clarke - ESSENTIAL

Clarke, Jane Old MacDonald’s Things That Go, illustrated by Migy Blanco. PICTURE BOOK. Candlewick Press, 2017. $15.99. Content: G.  

The traditional song of Old MacDonald Had a Farm takes a new twist when we find out all the sounds of Old MacDonald’s vehicles.  His truck, tractor, boat, combine harvester, airplane and more. 

It was a lot of fun learning all the names and then finding them again (and again) at the end of the book.  The illustrations are reminiscent of the picturebooks from the 1940s-1950s.  Well done! Loved it.
