Review by Booklist Review

From the tractor on the cover and the pig's face filling the title page, clear photos will draw young children into the exciting farm facts in this bright, square title. Printed on thick, glossy paper, the spreads zero in on various types of farms, and each one shows the clear sequence from farm life to finished product. On the dairy farm pages, for example, the images move from grazing to milking to cheese. There is little coverage of slaughter: the exciting cattle ranch scenes show lots of action shots of animals grazing and then waiting in a pen to be sold. The pages covering farm birds include turkeys, ducks, and chickens, such as the mother hen, featured front and center, laying eggs for your breakfast. Of course, the farm machines are as exciting as the animals. Other featured farm types include chocolate, cotton, fish, and tea. Part of the Discover More series, this title is released with a free digital companion book that can be downloaded at the publisher's website.--Rochman, Hazel Copyright 2010 Booklist
