Doreen Cronin Books Overview

The Trouble with Chickens

J.J. Tully is a former search and rescue dog who is trying to enjoy his retirement after years of performing daring missions saving lives. So he’s not terribly impressed when two chicks named Dirt and Sugar who look like popcorn on legs and their chicken mom show up demanding his help to track down their missing siblings. Driven by the promise of a cheeseburger, J.J. begins to track down clues. Is Vince the Funnel hiding something? Are there dark forces at work or is J.J. not smelling the evidence that s right in front of him? Bestselling author Doreen Cronin uses her deadpan humor to pitch perfect effect in her first novel for young readers. Heavily illustrated with black and white artwork from Kevin Cornell, this new series is destined to become a classic.

Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type

Farmer Brown
has a problem.
His cows like to type.
All day long he hears

Click, clack, MOO.
Click, clack, MOO.
Clickety, clack, MOO.

But Farmer Brown’s problems REALLY begin when his cows start leaving him notes…
.

Doreen Cronin’s understated text and Betsy Lewin’s expressive illustrations make the most of this hilarious situation. Come join the fun as a bunch of literate cows turn Farmer Brown’s farm upside down.

Giggle, Giggle, Quack

This hilarious follow up to the Caldecott Honor Book ‘Click, Clack, Moo: Cows that Type’ sees Farmer Brown’s brother Bob looking after the animals while the farmer is on holiday but Duck has a few tricks planned…
Farmer Brown is going on holiday and so he asks his brother, Bob, to take care of the animals. ‘But keep an eye on Duck. He’s trouble.’ Bob follows the instructions in Farmer Brown’s notes exactly to the letter. He orders pizza with anchovies for the hens, bathes the pigs with bubble bath, and lets the cows chose a movie. Is that giggling he hears? The duck, the cows, the hens and the pigs are back in top form in this hilarious follow up to ‘Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type’.

Diary of a Worm

This is the diary…
of a worm. Surprisingly, a worm not that different from you or me. Except he eats his homework. Oh, and his head looks a lot like his rear end. Doreen Cronin, the New York Times best selling author of CLICK, CLACK, MOO and GIGGLE, GIGGLE, QUACK, teams up with illustrator Harry Bliss for this hysterical journal about the daily doings and the hidden world of a lovable underground dweller.

Duck for President

My fellow Americans:

It is our pleasure, our honor, our duty as citizens to present to you Duck for President. Here is a duck who began in a humble pond. Who worked his way to farmer. To governor. And now, perhaps, to the highest office in the land.

Some say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he is a duck.

We say, if he walks like a duck and talks like a duck, he will be the next president of the United States of America.

Thank you for your vote.

Vote for Duck

Duck is not happy with his lot on Farmer Brown’s farm, so he calls an election…
and wins. But he soon finds out that he doesn’t actually enjoy running a farm and that he’d much rather hit the campaign trail. Moving higher and higher up the political hierarchy, Duck ultimately finds himself running the country. But is he happy? No, he yearns for the quiet life and so answers an add in the paper…
‘Duck wanted, no experience necessary’. An entertaining and original tale that takes a whole new look at the corridors of power!

wake up

with a

Wiggle?

Do you

out of bed?

Told in rollicky, wiggly rhyme that begs to be read again and again, Doreen Cronin’s latest romp will have toddlers wiggling, giggling, and then hopefully falling into bed, blissfully exhausted!

Diary of a Spider

This is the diary…
of a spider. But don’t be worried he’s more scared of you and your gigantic shoe! Actually, he’s a lot like you. He goes to gym class and has Grandparents’ Day at school. But he also spins sticky webs, scales walls, and takes wind catching lessons. Lucky for him, his best friend is a fly! Doreen Cronin and Harry Bliss, the team behind the 1 bestselling Diary Of A Worm, spin a hilarious tale about the upside down web world of an eight legged charmer and his unlikely friend, Fly.

Dooby Dooby Moo

Kindergarten Grade 3When Duck discovers an ad in the paper announcing a talent show at the county fair first prize, a slightly used trampoline, Farmer Brown’s animals are unstoppable. The cows and sheep concentrate on their singing while the pigs work on interpretive dance. How the suspicious farmer could ever confuse all this noise with routine snoring is a bit of a stretch, but the hilarious late night practice scenes inside the barn will help readers make the leap. At the talent show, the cows and sheep impress some of the judges, but lack of sleep has the pigs truly snoring when it is time to perform. Fortunately, Duck steps in to save the day with a winning version of Born to Be Wild. After the talent show, Farmer Brown suspects nothing until he hears boings coming from the barn. Comical watercolor illustrations provide the punch lines to many jokes within the well paced text. Some of the sophisticated humor will go over the heads of most children, especially the witty footnotes that pepper the story. However, like Click, Clack, Moo 2000 and Giggle, Giggle, Quack 2002, both S & S, this story makes a great read aloud, and fans of the series will be ecstatic to see another episode of mischief in the barnyard.
