Synopsis

In this sixth picture book in Roland Harvey's hilarious and delightful holiday adventure series, Uncle Kev has a farm, where the pigs do the polishing and the cows are the happiest in all the hills. Kev invites the family for a 'holiday', then sets them to work. There's lots to be done before the big Harvest Festival - and Kev is distracted, because he's fallen in love!Uncle Kevin had a farm, A-E-I-O-U, and on that farm we had a holiday, A-E-I-O-U! With a moo moo here and an oink oink there, here a honk, there a quack, everywhere a neigh neigh. Uncle Kevin had a farm, A-E-I-O-U!
