Gimme Cracked Corn & I Will Share by Kevin O'Malley

This book is a Groaner. O'Malley finds every pun imaginable to tie together his story of Chicken and George looking for a treasure Chicken dreamed about. In his dream, the treasure was under a pink pig in a barn, so Chicken and George set off on a hunt, cracking jokes along the way like two old Vaudvillians. The illustrations are bright and crips, and the disclaimers funny. Great Read Aloud (especially if you have an audience that likes puns). (Gimme Cracked Corn & I Will Share by Kevin O'Malley. Walker & Co., 2007.)
