A child discovers a parade of animals in this picture book filled with playful humor and rhyme.

This simple, funny read-aloud follows a boy’s exciting stroll through the countryside. The boy sees a black cat, then a brown horse, then a red cow, and so on, and before he knows it, he’s being trailed by the entire menagerie!

Big type, repetition, lively art, and the visual guessing game created by introducing each animal only partially at first, make this beloved tale a winner at story time.
