Punk Farm by Jarrett J. Krosoczka

If you want to spice up the traditional version of “Old MacDonald Had a Farm,†then add , a rock-n-roll version of “Old MacDonald,†to your reading list.
Tired from working hard all day, Farmer Joe goes to bed, but Sheep, Pig, Goat, Chicken and Cow’s night has just begun as they get their band together to rehearse. After rehearsing, they perform a rock concert, featuring “Old MacDonald,†for the rest of the farm animals.
The illustrations start off with farmyard colors and become jazzy and bold as the story continues. The recommended age is 4-8, but my three-year-old sure loves this book. The fun illustrations with short and simple text easily keep the attention of preschool children. You can even listen to the song on the book’s website.
Ages 4-8
