“This handsome poetry collection feels as hearty and comforting as a bowl of sugared porridge. . . . Children will delight in the fun and beauty.” — Booklist (starred review)From the bull to the barn cat to the wild bunny, the farmyard bustles with life. The rooster crows, the rams clash, the bees buzz, and over there in the garden, a snake — silent and alone — winds and watches. David Elliott’s graceful, simple verse and Holly Meade’s exquisite woodcut and watercolor illustrations capture a world that is at once timeless yet disappearing from view — the world of the family farm.

What you can you see on the farm today? Children will find out in this beautifully illustrated Shine-a-Light title, which looks at farming through the seasons. Full-colour artwork gives an insight into winter, spring, summer, and autumn on the farm, including how baby animals are cared for and how crops are grown and harvested. In addition, the unique design of the book allows children to discover a “hidden” image by holding the page up to a bright light, much like a lift-the-flap mechanism. For children aged 3 and up, this is a wonderful introduction to life on a farm.
