A bushel And a peck A barrel And a heap Mutual affection grows between two flirty ducklings as they bill and coo around the farmyard in Rosemary Wells's young and sassy interpretation of a beloved Frank Loesser song. This calls for hugs around the neck while reading, so be sure to share it with someone special.
My young daughter loves this book. She knows the tune from one of the Putamayo CD's (Dan Zanes sings this song.) Too sweet.
I love the song - - I ADORE this book!!

I came across this book while searching for the lyrics to the 'Bushel & A Peck' song from the 'Guys and Dolls' soundtrack. My grandmother used to sing the song to my mother and my mother used to sing the song to my sister and I. In keeping tradition, we both now sing the song to our children and I was so excited when I found this book! The kids love the little duck characters as they sing the song through the vibrantly colored pages. We all 'doodle oodle oodle' through the end!! If you like the song - - you will absolutely love the book!!
Love this book!

My 2 1/2 year old twins love it when I sing this song to them, so I was thrilled to find a book that illustrated it. The pictures are bright and fun, and it's always nice when the publisher includes the lyrics/music, as it does in this one.
My Kids LOVE This Book

My mother taught this song to me when I was little & now I can share it with my children too. The pictures are bright & engaging. My three year old & 16 month old both like to "read" the book & we sing the song together when we are finished.
Sing this song to a little one? This is great fun!

My mother has always sung this song to our son, who is now 29 and about to become a father for the first time. What better way to keep the tradition going than to have a book to read to a great-grandchild that says the same thing? The book is large enough to hold with a child, with large print and brightly-colored pictures that are fun to look at. It's short enough to read without a little one losing interest -- and to be able to sing while you read -- what fun! Share it with someone you love "a bushel and a peck!"
