Bookroo's summary

It's Farmer Brown's birthday, and his farm animals are busy planning special gifts. The hen offers eggs, the rooster promises morning wake-ups, and the sheep contribute their warm wool. What surprises await Farmer Brown on his special day?

From the publisher

In this classic Little Golden Book from the illustrator of Tootle, The Little Red Caboose, and Scuffy the Tugboat, it’s Farmer Brown’s birthday, and the animals are deciding what they’ll do for him on his special day. “Cluck! I will give him eggs,” said the hen. Said the rooster, “I’ll wake him in the mornings, then.” “Baa-aa, we’ll give him wool,” said the sheep. “For our fleece is soft and warm and deep.”
