By Dr. H. Payne
Format:Board book
A classic lift-the-flap book from Rod Campbell. The reader follows a sheepdog around the farm as he runs off in search of various animal noises. On each page there is a flap, usually with the offspring of the animal underneath. So you have plenty of opportunities to name farm animals, their young and make their noises. There's also scope for practicing counting up to 4 with the pictures of the offspring.
Let's face it there are scores of toddler books about farm animals. This one stands out for me though. The linking device of the sheepdog lends a feeling of narrative continuity when many other books simply present a sequence of unconnected pictures of animals. The friendly simplicity of these illustrations has made it a winner with both of my children from the age of about 10 months onwards. My 4 year old now likes showing it to his 18 month old sister. As far as these things go the flaps are reasonably substantial too.
I heartily recommend this to you.

Very good book, my 2 and half year old loves it. It's a bedtime favourite. It's not too long which is a bonus after a busy day!! Well worth buying...

I bought this book for my 14 month old grandaughter. She loves animals and likes to make the sounds they use. She loves it.

good book, but flaps come off way too easily
good book, ideal for young babies and toddlers, but beware, the lift the flap flaps come away from the book much too easily. surely can't be right for the age it's intended for?!

Great lift the flap book
My daughter loves lifting the flaps. At the moment she prefers dear zoo and presents by the same author but she is only 1 and I'm sure she will enjoy this more as she gets older.
