The old song you learned as a child will take on a fresh new life of enjoyment as Gris Grimly’s whimsical illustrations fill your field of vision. Large bulky farm animals with skinny legs, a hundred year old barn leaning in several directions, gnarled trees, old split-rail fences, and a weather vane all precariously being held together by make-shift repairs.
Old farmer MacDonald happily tours his farm in his knee-patched bib-overalls as he tends to his chickens, turkey, ducks, donkey, pigs, caw, and sheep. When they all return to the barn, low and behold there is a bear inside “E-I-E-I…OH! With a GRR-GRR here, and a GRR-GRR there Here a GRR, there a GRR, everywhere a GRR-GRR…Old MacDonald had a farm…E-I-E-I-O”
Includes piano score with lyrics and some of Gris Grimly’s family farming history.
