Customer Reviews

Tractors and other farm machines
Tractor would more accurately be entitled farm machines. Some of the machines described are seed drills, crop sprayers, various harvesters, bailers, hay tredders, ATVs, and monster tractors. The photographs are excellent. One shows a machine where seven people are carried along just over the soil weeding seedlings on an organic farm. The text is full of fun facts. There is a glossary and an index. Karen Woodworth Roman, Children's Science Book Review

Excellent Book!
Because it is about farmers and tractors, this book is really interesting! It has good pictures of John Deere's, Tractor Pulls, and of other awesome tractors! It tells you a lot of things about tractors and farming. I think kids who like tractors and farming will love this book!

Perfect for our "info craved" 3 year old
We love that this book has technical and mechanical info about the tractor's themselves and not just the names or pictures. It's full of information that even if my son does not get all of it now, with time he will. My son wants to know "more" about everything he sees and this book provides him that!
