Picture Book: Click, Clack, Moo Cows that Type Author:
Doreen Cronin
Summary: In this book, Farmer Brown discovers a problem. His
cows spend all day typing on a typewriter! As the story moves on, the cows end up leaving Farmer Brown notes demanding items for themselves and their friends, the hens. But when Farmer Brown does not answer their demands, they go on strike and type, "no milk, no eggs." Farmer Brown is not happy with their demands and he gives them an ultimatum, which they respond to quite surprisingly. The end is unexpected and very funny when the ducks learn a few tricks from the cows and the hens.
