The Flood  Description

"The Flood"

by Nigel Gray and illustrated by Elise Hurst (Windy Hollow Books, 2008)

It rained and rained and rained until Mrs Farmer's farm was flooded. Only one thing to do - bring all the animals inside! All of a sudden there are pigs in the laundry, sheep on the furniture and cows in the dining room. When the water recedes the animals all go back to their normal places, but not for long! This fun picture book for young children is a great read - with many opportunities for counting and identifying all the animals on the farm.

A 2009 Notable picture book in the CBCA Book of the Year Awards.
