A fun lift-the-flap book that is noteworthy because it gives such a realistic picture of farm life. It isn't sugar-coated or cartoonized, but explains the real characteristics of each animal you might find on a farm. I was interested to learn that goats are good at climbing and jumping, and might be mischievious enough to climb into the farmer's truck to eat a harvest of apples. Lucy especially loves the worm in the apple that the rooster is trying to eat.

One of my kids favorites. There are lots of little flaps that add more information and new details about the animals.
