What is Raţa fermieră: farmer duck about?

A hardworking duck does everything on the farm while the lazy farmer stays in bed, shouting, “How goes the work?” The duck feeds the animals, collects eggs, chops wood and even cooks and irons, until exhaustion finally catches up with him. Seeing how unfairly their friend is treated, the farm animals join forces and make a daring plan. Together, they stand up to the farmer and transform life on the farm in this funny story about fairness, friendship and teamwork.
