All the animals in this mixed-up farmyard are out of place. What shall we do? ask the farmer's children and, of course, there's an easy answer. Collage art in felt, stitched with antique fabrics, buttons, and other bric-a-brac, perfectly illustrates the playful text.

'The magical blend of flannel boards and quilting is like eye candy - a visual feast for the mind and the soul.' --Booklist
'A very gentle story with lovely illustrations.' --The Irish Post
'Exciting, eye-catching illustrations and rollicking, rhyming text follow a 'cow in the cabbage patch, moo, moo, moo...' that 'should be in the dairy, what shall we do?' Beaton's whimsical illustrations prepared in felt and cotton with beads and buttons follow two farmers who push the cow to the dairy, but find a dove destined for the birdhouse, and an owl in the birdhouse that ought to be in the old barn, and so on. The tale continues until it's dinnertime and 'all these naughty animals are back where they belong!' Large shapes and bright colours will satisfy even those in the back row of a group.' --School Library Journal
