Why? Why? Why? My Junior Encyclopedia: Farm

Content

Ready, steady, chug chug goes the tractor! There's so much to experience on the farm: the corn chopper is driving across the field, the sheep are being shorn and the cows are being fed. You can even do a farmstay vacation. In this book, children learn what machines such as a manure robot and an egg vending machine do. With the help of playful flaps, they can shop in the farm store and help harvest fruit, vegetables and grain. And which tools does the farmer need? Children can find out by playing a game.
