One classroom, two boys, a little free time and a huge amount of imagination has created this quaint tale of life on the farm. The Farmer and his Animals was not a school assignment, but instead a story Ben and Charlie created because they love to write and draw. It was a great collaboration between the boys, one that certainly proved they can work together to get the job done.
