In this female-forward spin on the traditional children's song "Old MacDonald", readers can join Miss MacDonald on her vegetable farm and see all the work that goes into growing healthy and delicious produce.

"Miss MacDonald has a farm,
She loves things that grow!"

E-I-E-I-GROW! With a "weed-weed" here and a "pick-pick" there, young readers can follow Miss MacDonald as she tends to her vegetable farm. It's a rollicking, rhyming read-aloud that ends in a community feast and celebrates themes of healthy eating, plant-based meals, local produce, gardening, seasons, and female farmers.

Miss MacDonald Has a Farm is a cute new take on an old classic we all know and love.

This time around MacDonald is a female, and instead of animals, she is growing beautiful crops!
Children get an introductory look at sowing seeds, sprouting seeds, and more.
Written to the tune of Old MacDonald, kids will have a blast reading this aloud. There is an abundance of action words that work to engage children into the story.

The illustrations are beautiful. They are vibrant and show case different vegetables in the garden well.
