Old-school illustrations and the quintessential farm scenes, what is not to love!

Ages: 3 - 7

**Like my reviews? I also have hundreds of detailed reports that I offer too. These reports give a complete break-down of everything in the book, so you'll know just how clean it is or isn't. I also have Clean Guides (downloadable PDFs) which enable you to clean up your book before reading it!

Great story to read for children. This story covers the responsibility of caring for all the animals on the farm. Everything to feeding the chickens and the farmer plowing the field. My favorite part that reminds me of my childhood is the children running to the bus. The mile trek towards the mail box to get to the bus, what fun. Simple illustrations and great story. Recommend for your library.

Two children enjoy an idyllic life on an old-fashioned family farm.

This picture book indulges in the nostalgia for the myth of the family farm. It also introduces young readers to common farm animals.

I really liked this one because of all of the animals in it, which makes for fun reading with animal noises.

Kind of set in a bucolic early-50s world, but still fun to read. I love Jan Pfloog's art.

Sweet, short, nostalgic book about life on a farm.
