Old MacDonald has a farm, E-I-E-I-O!
And on that farm he had...a dragon?
The animals aren't happy that there's a dragon on the farm. But Old MacDonald likes his dragon...until it starts swalling up the animals! Can Old MacDonald save his farm before it's too late? Find out in this silly adaptation of the popular song.

Silly book! Ok, it doesn't really redo the song, but every time the farmer tries to sing a verse, the animal in question objects to having a dragon on the farm, only to have the dragon drop out of the sky and gulp it down in one big bite. At first the farmer is happy to get rid of the grumpy animals but as more and more of them disappear (where will he get wooly socks to keep his feet warm without sheep) the farmer decides he needs to do something about it, even though he really does like having a dragon of his own. Let's just say his attempt to tell a giant fire-breathing flying lizard what to do doesn't go so well. But in the end things work out for everyone, and little kids reading the book still get to learn all the barnyard sounds! The art had an interesting almost three-dimensional style to it that I kind of enjoyed. On the whole it was fun if absurd.
