February 2021 Book of the Month

Old Macdonald had a phone, e-i-e-i-o. Very useful it is too, helping him get organised and run the farm. But then he drops it in the lake, and when ordering a replacement, accidentally buys 100. The animals all take one, and chaos ensues. They are all so busy on their phones – here a tweet, there a chat – that nothing gets done and Old Macdonald has no milk, or eggs to sell. 

Fortunately, he finds a solution, and everyone lives happily – a chat-chat here, and a selfie there, but not all day – that seems fair! It’s another clever, very funny cautionary tale for our online times from the brilliant duo of Willis and Ross.  The rhymes make it bliss to read aloud, and the illustrations are a spritely delight.  Funny, clever and we can all learn from it – what more could you ask? Smiley face.

Look out too for the other books in this fabulous series, Chicken ClickingTroll Stinks and #Goldilocks.
