An abundance of onomatopoeia and tongue-twisters encourages children to laugh and sing along. The colorful illustrations perfectly match the silly text, comparing the two farms and their playful, singing animals. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe barnyard animals on Old MacDonald's and Señor Pancho's farms have a hard time communicating. MacDonald's rooster says cock-a doodle-doo! while Señor Pancho's gallo says quiquiriquí. The English-speaking chick says peep, peep, but el pollito says pio, pio. Then the cow says moo--and la vaca says mu! Maybe they're not so different after all! The animals come together for a barnyard fiesta in a celebration of languages. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA pronunciation guide is included for readers and teachers. This book was awarded Bank Street's Book of the Year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRené Colato Laínez is an award-winning author born in El Salvador.
