"Wilbur, the pig, is desolate when he discovers that he is destined to be the farmer's Christmas dinner until his spider friend, Charlotte, decides to help him."

When Farmer Brown's cows find a typewriter in the barn they start making demands, and go on strike when the farmer refuses to give them what they want. Farmer Brown thinks it's odd when he hears the sounds of typing coming from the barn, but his troubles really begin when his cows start leaving him notes. First they demand better working conditions, then they stage a strike!

When Dog wakes up early, in the middle of the night, he launches all the other farm animals in a worried search for the missing sun.

On a dark and windy night, the animals in the barn are frightened by strange noises above them and think there might be a ghost in the barn with them.

A child naps like the cat, flaps like the hen, swims like the duck, and imitates the other animals on the farm.

In this story based on "The Little Red Hen," a little black crow asks his animal friends to help with the planting of some corn seed.

When a new animal comes to the barnyard, the animals try to determine which one of them it resembles--since it is white like the duck, has four legs like the pig, and eats clover like the cow.

A cow's moo sets off a chain reaction in which the other animals on the farm speak out in their own way to let the farmer's wife know she is late to feed them.
