Description
A rhythmic text and Taback's vibrant illustrations call on young readers to imitate the noisy denizens of a bustling barn. This sturdy board book with a lenticular cover is a great companion to the award-winning team's two previous titles in the series: 'Wiggle Like an Octopus' and 'Swing Like a Monkey'.
