The Cheese by Margie Palatini
3.0
Kind of cute. I do really like the idea of using "the farmer in the dell" to question authority.
BUT the payoff at the end was a little anti-climactic. I expected something big, like maybe the cheese stood alone because it was a rabid piece of attack cheese, and it was for the protection of the rest of the farm, or maybe it was quarantined because of a rare cheese-disease that turns all who taste it into additional chunks of cheese!
Alas, neither of those were the real outcome, and I was left a little disappointed in the saccharine ending.
