To my daughter, this book has no peer,
Every lifted flap brings so much cheer,
But there's one thing that I so fear,
I'll probably still be reading this all next year...

Oh dear! I think I need a beer!

Such a beautiful book, Phoebe loved the pop outs of finding all the animals. Her smiles and giggles say it all.

I think someone ought to teach buster about farmyard animals reproductive systems

A silly little lift the flap book that is a lot like "Dear Zoo." Although, I do think that if the little boy in the story is old enough to go collect the eggs, he should also know that eggs come from chickens...

Mummy read me this and Grandma and Granda’s house. It’s alright, however I would argue that Buster should’ve been able to find eggs in the duck pond too . It isn’t just chickens that lay eggs #representation # DEI

Flaps, Farm, Funny. Buster is trying to remember which animal has the eggs. So after checking with the horse, the cow...etc. etc....he finds the eggs. A great read a loud for toddlers.

My child loves this book.

[Sam Anneken · Rating 5 out of 5]

A great engaging book that can be used to get kids excited about reading. You can have your child learn about what different animals make different things.

[Yuna Findlay · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another favourite. There’s something special about it seeing behind those flaps, especially these ones. So easy to lift, so smooth. And all the animals I got to learn about. Can’t have enough of it!

Unboxing all the books from a while ago. Reminiscing of a wonderful past years.
Jolting down to keep track of memories.

This is a good book, teaching various animals and the names of each animal's home.
