She’s had enough of grass so tries the dog’s food, the cat’s milk, the pig’s potatoes, even the farmer’s pants. She then becomes ill – hilariously illustrated by her turning shades of red, blue, yellow and green – but recovers over the course of the week, until finally she is back to her usual self. Just as things appear to be back to normal for everyone on the farm, we see the goat trying out the farmer’s wellies.
A GOOD CHOICE
