Synopsis
When a woman complains that her house is far too small, a wise old man suggests bringing in her farm animals! With a cow, goat, pig and hen all squeezed inside, chaos unfolds. But when the animals finally leave, the woman realises her house is just the right size after all. Julia Donaldson’s lively rhymes and Axel Scheffler’s colourful artwork make this a funny and heart-warming tale about appreciating what you have.
