One of the first picture books to come into the house – oh gosh – more than 45 years ago, delighted all three of my children, and the adults who read it with them. It’s still sought after, this early edition, but you’ll have to shell out about £25 to get a copy. The book was Farmer Fisher.
Farmer Fisher had a fine fat truck.

Well. I won’t be showing you a rabbit. I haven’t got a shot of one. Or a chicken. Or a duck. Elke, for this week’s Monochrome Madness would like us to show farmyard animals, so I’m sticking to four legged examples.
Like cows …
… and sheep …
… and pigs …
… and a goat …
… and not forgetting donkeys. Not useful, but easy to love.
And here’s a little library of livestock to finish with.
For Leanne’s Monochrome Madness.
