Kindergarten-Grade 2–The annual Corn Maze Festival is quickly approaching, and all of the animals on the farm, including the mice, have been recruited by Farmer Brown to help make this year's festival a great success. All of them are enthusiastic about it except Duck, who is reluctant to help. While Farmer Brown is busy working on his maze, fashioned after the Statue of Liberty, Duck is secretly working on a project of his own. Wrapped up in his own project, the man neglects to supervise what others are doing, resulting in unexpected and amusing results. Once again, Cronin and Lewin, with the aid of Rioja's excellent translation, have created a humorous and entertaining story that will capture children's imaginations. Lewin's vividly colored illustrations and clever representations of the characters will make young readers go back to this book again and again.
