The poem lists the sounds different animals make. The last line asks what the cuckoo says, implying it is a well-known sound.
Step-by-step deduction:
1.
Analyze the pattern: Each line introduces an animal and the specific noise it makes (e.g., "Bow-wow" for the dog, "Quack, quack" for the duck).
2.
Identify the subject: The final line mentions "the cuckoo."
3.
Recall the sound: A cuckoo bird is famous for its call that sounds like its own name.
4.
Formulate the answer: Since the poem says "what the cuckoo says you know," the answer is simply the sound associated with that bird.
Final Answer:
Cuckoo
