This features ducks, but all the farm animals join in (with sounds) to try and get it to rain. 5/16/12

Everyone joined in with the animal sounds. 4/21/15

Used again for a PJ time. (Had the best time with a baby, who kept trying to imitate the sounds after me.) 5/11

Used in my duck programs this year. Love it when everyone participates with the animal sounds...

Do kids really need another farm animal sounds book? The pictures are nice and the story about rain starts to be fun, but then it's another "pig says oink" lame-o.

Not really about ducks and the plot doesn't make sense as to them making animal noises brings rain...but the kids loved it and that is the most important thing.
