Another classic story from William Steig, the Caldecott and Newbery Medal-winning creator of Shrek!, Farmer Palmer's Wagon Ride follows a pig and a donkey on a journey home full of misadventures.
Farmer Palmer, a pig, and his hired hand Ebenezer, a donkey, have a fine morning selling their leeks, turnips, and lettuce at the market.
