Farmer Brown has a problem. His cows like
to type. All day long he hears click, clack,
moo. Click, clack, moo. Clickety, clack, moo.
At first he couldn’t believe his ears. Cows
that type? Impossible! Click, clack, moo.
Click, clack, moo. Clickety, clack, moo.
Then he couldn’t believe his eyes.
“Dear Farmer Brown,
The barn is very cold at night.
We’d like some electric blankets.
Sincerely,
The Cows.”
It was bad enough the cows had found the
old typewriter in the barn, now they wanted
electric blankets! “No way,” said Farmer
Brown.
“No electric blankets.”
So the cows went on strike. They left a note
on the barn door.
“Sorry.
We’re closed.
No milk today.”
