A Hen, a Chick, and a String Guitar by Mary Read Macdonald

Quack, moo and neigh along to this riotous cumulative song, which features animals of all shapes and sizes. With hens, chicks, cats, kittens, dogs, puppies and many more, this entertaining caper introduces children to animals and their babies, and teaches how to count up to sixteen in multiples of two. The book comes with a free audio CD that includes two versions of the song, both with and without vocals, so children can listen first and then sing along.
