When the rain comes pouring down Mrs Farmer has no choice but to let the farm animals inside with some very funny results. She ends up with dogs in the kitchen, pigs in the laundry, cows in the dining room, sheep in the sitting room and hens that lay eggs in all sorts of surprising places. When the water recedes she sends them all back outside... but not for long. A delightful story about finding companionship in unlikely places. Children’s Book Council Notable Book 2009.
