The Farmer's Boy is a picture book written in the form folk song by British author Randolph Caldecott, who has written and illustrated books such as The Queen of Hearts, The Milk-Maid, and Hey-Diddle-Diddle and Baby Hunting.

A farmer’s boy sing a song to his lover as when I was a farmer’s boy: I used to keep my master’s Horses, Lamps, Pigs, Ducks, Dogs, Children, and Turkeys; and the poem narrates rhyming words to each.
