Illus. in full color. "A young farmer thinks he has gotten a real deal when an old man sells him a farm for one dollar. Upon inspection, however, there are a few liabilities: a cat that thinks it&&&^s a horse, a rooster that thinks it&&&^s a dog, and other animals with identity problems. The initial joke will really tickle new readers. Long, but easy; kids will feel a sense of accomplishment when they finish this."--Booklist.
