Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly
Sloat and Westcott, who teamed up for The Thing That Bothered Farmer Brown, offer tongue-twisting rhyme and two Farmer Brown-twisting tornadoes. As Farmer Brown completes his chores, a powerful wind sweeps him up along with all his animals. "While clouds of sheep swirled through the air,/ The clothesline chased the goat and mare/ Until each one had on a pair/ Of Farmer Brown's plaid underwear!" When the crowd crash-lands back in the barnyard, Farmer Brown discovers that something is amiss: "His cows oinked,/ The pigs moo'd,/ His sheep clucked,/ The cat coo'd." In the ensuing mayhem, sheep try to lay eggs, cows wallow in the mud and Farmer Brown crows "Cock-a-doodle-doo!" It takes the return of the twister to restore the group's proper personalities and behaviors. Sloat spins entertaining verse, and a silly mood prevails. Westcott composes cartoon voice bubbles that divulge a confused dog's "neigh" and a goat's "meow." Instead of illustrations that show the threatening storm, the whole cast suddenly appears in midair, wrapped in a swirl of white. The tornado theme may not be hilarious for Midwesterners, but if readers can handle The Wizard of Oz, this should be (ahem) a breeze. Ages 4-7.

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 3-In this companion book to The Thing That Bothered Farmer Brown (Orchard, 1995), a twister blows in and whirls the barnyard inhabitants, including Farmer Brown, up and down and all around. Although everyone lands safely, things are not the same: the "cows oinked,/The pigs moo'd," Farmer Brown is cock-a-doodle-dooing, and the rooster is running the farm. In time, another twister blows in, returning the barnyard to its previous state. The humor, text, and visual presentation are sharper and more effective than in the first book. Bright cartoon illustrations and bouncy rhymed narration punch up the silly story. Images of pigs being milked and animals in plaid and polka-dot underwear are sure to tickle young readers. This rhythmic narration will make for a lively read-aloud. Pair it with Bernard Most's Cock-a-Doodle-Moo! (Harcourt, 1996) and score a 10 on the storytime giggle meter.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's the only book my kids want to read now!!, October 21, 1999
By Stacy Dolder (Simi Valley) - See all my reviews
My kids and I both love the whimsical nature of both Farmer Brown books by Teri Sloat. The wording and pictures go perfectly together and are good for a laugh and putting us all in a fun and silly mood. I hope there are more Farmer Brown adventures to come!

5.0 out of 5 stars Frivolity on the Farm, August 17, 2001
Teri Sloat is the author of several books including: The Thing That Bothered Farmer Brown, and she lives near a farm. Nadine Bernard Westcott is also no stranger to farms and animal sounds.

All the animals are just comical. The cat is also quite cute. At the beginning, all the animals are making their normal animally sounds. The pigs are oinking, the cows moo.

But then he heard a rumbling sound That made his smile turn upside down. ...."Look out!" he cried. "A twister's coming!"

The following pages will bring giggles as all the animals get caught up in the clothes line and the expressions on the sheep's faces.....you just have to see it!

When the twister drops them all, the sheep are clucking and the cows are oinking. More silliness continues as the sheep take over the roost and the muddy, oinking cows get slopped.

The rooster takes over the farmer's job and tells everyone what to do. Fortunately another twister hits and sets things right again.

"Except on days when strong winds blew...."

A purely silly delight!
