Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type (2000)

Farmer Brown's cows find a typewriter and start making demands.

Someone online said that they read this to their kids in preparation for the day that they'll need to ask for a raise. :D ( )

A perennial favorite. Also a good introduction to the art of negotiation. ( )

Farmer Brown has a problem, his cows like to type! They spend all day typing. His problems really begin when his cows start leaving him notes! The cows go on strike and demand better things from the Farmer. Eventually, with the help of Duck as a diplomat, their demands are met and they get back to work. Another one of my childhood favorites, this book could be used to teach students about the impact that persuasive writing can make! ( )

This is a cute book about farm animals that go on strike. They use a type writer to type letters of demands to the farmer, and in their demands they say that they will remain on strike until they get the things they need. This book is really good for onomatopoeias, and teaching the character virtue of determination. ( )
