One big tractor, shiny and new. One small tractor, rusty and
blue... TRACTOR TRACTOR is the second book in a series of
lift-the-flap books about the humorous goings-on at Funny Farm.
Each book has an early-learning aspect and TRACTOR TRACTOR is all
about opposites. It has sliders too, so children can make the
tractors move forward and back, fast and slow. It's harvest time
and Red arrives shiny, fast and strong. Blue is an old faithful -
small and rusty but wise and calm. So when Red decides to race home
after a hard day's harvesting, Blue lets him go, only to find Red
in a ditch, no longer shiny and clean but the dirtiest - and
smelliest! - tractor he's ever seen. A warm-hearted story that
shows, despite being opposites, young and old can make a great
team, and be the very best of friends. The Funny Farm series is
beautifully produced with matt laminated and embossed covers and
sturdy board pages. It also includes Cluck, Cluck, Duck, a counting
lift-the-flap book.
