What is Old MacPumpkin had a farm about?

Old MacPumpkin has a very unusual farm! While she busily looks after her animals, a cat, bat, spider, skeleton, witch, ghost and even a monster are hiding all around her. But Old MacPumpkin does not notice a thing until someone comes knocking at the door. This playful Halloween twist on the classic Old MacDonald rhyme is filled with spooky surprises, repeated sounds and a fun trick-or-treat party ending for little listeners to enjoy.
