When the farmer goes out of town, and leaves his brother in charge of the farm, mischief begins. The brother was warned to watch out for duck and all the trouble he might cause. While the farmer is on vacation, the duck begins writing letters, pretending to be the farmer. Thanks to the letters, the animals got away with eating pizza for dinner and having movie nights. terios | Oct 25, 2009 | level 2 reading. Farmer Brown left town for a few days while his brother bob watched the farm. Duck rewrote all Farmer Browns notes and got cought. This is a cute story to show how even though a child can get away with someting does not mean it is the right thing to do and will eventurally get them in trouble. This website is a math lesson plan. http://teachers.net/lessons/posts/344... (  ) dlsmith5 | Oct 10, 2009 | I abslolutely loved this book. I loved the vivid illustrations and how all of the animals are mentioned throughout the book. I think this would be a great book to have in my classroom, and it would also be great to read aloud. There are certain parts in the book that I would read, and it was the animal's turn to make a noise, I think it would be great to let the kids say the noises. This is a very interactive book for the kids to read. www.doreencronin.com erowan | Oct 5, 2009 | In Giggle,Giggle,Quack there is a duck who likes to try an take advantage of Farmer Brown. In the book, Farmer Brown decides to take a vaction and ask his brother to watch over his farm and to keep an extra pair of eyes of duck because he has a mind of his own. Duck some how finds a way to rewrite all the notes Farmer Brown left for his brother giving all the animals in the farm what they want. This books shows humor in the sense Bob never knows he is doing wrong. On pbs.org, there are games that go along with this book. This is a good website for children to go and play and also it has lesson plans for the teachers. ( ) agwood | Aug 28, 2009 |  no reviews | add a review

| Book description |
|
Poor Bob has no idea what he's in for, and Duck and friends have shrewdly seized this chance to move on from collective bargaining to outright subterfuge: "Bob gave Duck a good long stare and went inside. He read the first note: 'Tuesday night is pizza night (not the frozen kind!). The hens prefer anchovies.'" Well, seems like strange way to run a farm, but... "Twenty-nine minutes later there was hot pizza in the barn." Giggle, giggle, quack, indeed.
Clearly, Duck and his cow pals aren't the only ones around to have mastered the pencil and the keyboard. Cronin and Lewin have put their talents to good use yet again, offering up another simple but clever story fit for kids and grownups alike. Lewin seems to snicker throughout her playful watercolors (gotta love those monogrammed towels: "FB"), and Cronin has a ball with the animal cast and their human patsy. (What do the cows pick on movie night? "The Sound of Moosic," of course. Giggle, giggle, moo.) (Ages 4 to 8) --Paul Hughes
