This is about a city woman who moves to a farm. She misses the noise of the city. One by one she adds animals to add noise to her little farm. One day, she is driving down the road and hears a wonderful noise. She investigates and discovers that it is coming from a home for boys. She decides to take the two noisiest boys home with her and finally solves her problem! Sweet story and delightful Lawson illustrations throughout.
