Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Click, Clack, Moo is, of course, the sound of a typing cow. When Farmer Brown's cows start leaving him typed notes and demanding better conditions, a stand-off is inevitable--until neutral Duck steps in to mediate. Doreen Cronin's original storyline is perfectly complemented by the bold illustrative style of Betsy Lewin in this refreshingly unsentimental picture book. With its quirky humour and sophisticated vocabulary Click, Clack, Moo cleverly ensures that adults will enjoy reading the story aloud as often as young listeners will want to hear it. --Helen Baker

I own this book and really enjoy reading it to my 20 month old daughter. I think the Amazon review is spot on as this is a great book for adults to read as it is fun and exciting which you pass on when you read it. My daughter has few words in her vocabulary so far but what she does know is Moo and Again which she is saying every time I finish.

I love this book. I bought it for my niece, for her birthday, but might just keep it myself! The wonderful tale of the cows who type letters to the farmer, making demands on him is just charming, and the involvement of the ducks, as 'a neutral party' is highly amusing, especially the end.
The illustrations are bright and colourful, and any young child cannot fail to be won over by them.

I would recommend this book. It is well illustrated, has a lovely story, is funny and very amusing. Each time i read it i snigger, especially at the end! The story can be taken at face value by the younger readers, but does introduce some very important adult themes about impartiality, mediation and compromise. This doesnt detract from this delightful little tale at all, in fact it makes it all the better for the adult reader, who will, no doubt be reading it to their child.

Brilliant book.
I am 5 3/4 and really love this book. It is brilliant because I never thought of the idea of cows typing and wanting electric blankets. It is silly but fantastic and funny. It really helped my Mum to describe her school work for industrial relations.
It is different to the kind of boring normal books . By the way I'm getting some more of this superb author's books.

Collective bargaining for children
I love reading this story to my kids. They like it too. It is a very amusing introduction to the principle of collective bargaining. Cows that type? Hens on strike?

Can't help but smile
A lovely little story. It's fun and easy to read with good illustrations. As a teacher it can be used on so many levels, you can't help but make links to onomatopoeias as well as... Read more

One for the adults too
This is a great, funny book that you won't tire of reading. I bought it for my 2 1/2 year old but she is a little too young to get it fully. Nice illustrations too.

Forget the kids - this is an adult must read!
What a totally amazing read! It's just too funny to be a kids book. My friend described it as a little like those pixar cartoons that have adult humour that appeal to kids. Read more
