Today in kiddie French we read Animal Farm for three year olds.
No, really.
The book was the story of le canard; le canard worked around the farm while the fat farmer lay in bed eating chocolates; le canard worked until he cried with exhaustion, at which point the other animals—la vache, les muttons, and a gaggle of others—stormed the house, threw the farmer from his bed, and chased him from the farm.
Then le canard returned to doing the work around the farm.
