Duck has the last quack in this hilarious romp from the team that brought us CLICK, CLACK, MOO COWS THAT TYPE. Farmer Brown goes on vacation, leaving his brother Bob in charge. Little does Bob know that Duck has gone around and changed all of Farmer Brown's instructions on how to take care of the animals. Narrated by Randy Travis with music by Scotty Huff and Robert Reynolds.
DVD includes both English and Spanish versions with subtitles.
Reviews:
Booklist: “Narrator Randy Travis charms with his down-home delivery. The soundtrack bubbles with funny farm animal sounds; the duck vocalizations are cheerfully nutty. In one wacky moment, the ear-pleasing countrified music score pays hilarious homage to ‘The Sound of Music.’”
Video Librarian: “…those coming fresh to the war between Farmer Brown and his mischievous animals will enjoy this barnyard tale. Recommended.” (Three stars)
School Library Journal: “The hillbilly music and down-home narration by country singer Randy Travis is the perfect match for Betsy Lewin’s fun-filled cartoon illustrations. Kids will “quack up” when they watch this clever barnyard romp.”
