Freddy and the Bean Home News

By Walter R. Brooks and Kurt Wiese

In Freddy and the Bean Home News, Freddy’s friend Mr. Dimsey, the editor of the Guardian, is ousted for publishing news of Bean Farm in the local newspaper. To ensure that those who are interested might still learn of all the goings-on, Freddy takes it upon himself to found a newspaper of his own and calls it The Bean Home News (the basis for the ever-popular Freddy Fan Club newsletter). It turns out that being a newspaperman isn’t quite as easy as Freddy thought it might be, but with typical aplomb he manages to burn the wires!

Reviews for Freddy and the Bean Home News

[antiquary_1 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

As the title says, this time Freddy the pig becomes the editor of his own newspaper for the Bean Farm animals.

[aulsmith · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Except for the scrap drive, this could have been written in 2012 instead of 1943. A rich person tries to use the media to distort the truth and rig an election. As in all the Freddy books, the animals triumph. I'm not sure the United States is going to be that lucky.
