Why did we select this book?
As a book committee, we look at hundreds of books. We know we have a winner when everyone starts to read a particular book aloud to each other or starts humming the tune. This picture book, set to the song, "Skip to My Lou," is a fun, chaotic romp through a farmhouse with a group of misbehaving farm animals. There is so much to look at in each picture, we thought children would want to return to the book again and again.
