Farm animals take on Britain's Got Talent, in this laugh-out-loud funny rhyming romp! From Peter Bently and Jim Field - illustrator of the bestselling Oi Frog. Then Buttercup Jersey, the moonwalking cow, caused cries of 'Incredible!', 'Knockout!' and 'Wow!' She glided and twisted and then did the splits. It was utterly stunning. They loved her to bits! Old Farmer Clegg may be tucked up for the night, but down in the farmyard, a talent show is about to take place. Who has what it takes to be a star The break-dancing cow The honky-tonk geese Meg, the egg-laying, Mozart-singing hen Or maybe a certain sleep-walking farmer... With a bouncy rhyming story and lively, comedy-packed illustrations from the bestselling Jim Field, this is the perfect read-aloud treat!
