Oh, A-Hunting We Will Go

So begins this rollicking folk song that has delighted generations of children and inspired them to make up their own verses. John Langstaff has selected some of the most popular stanzas, both old and new, that are sure to bring out smiles and giggles. Nancy Winslow Parker's pictures join in the fun as a band of intrepid children hunt for the fox, a skunk, and even a brontosaurus with wildly silly results.
Piano and guitar accompaniment are provided so grown-ups can sing along, too. The playful mood of the words, music, and pictures is infectious -- you may even decide to add new verses of your own!

Do not worry not animals are harmed in this hunting book. Go hunting with some children as they explore animals in the woods. The book also discusses animals and words that rhyme with the animal. My students really enjoyed the rhyme scheme the book uses.
