Baby Farm Animals (A Little Golden Book Classic) [Hardcover]

Garth Williams (Author, Illustrator)

Book Description

Release date: December 7, 1993 | Age Range: 3 - 7 years | Series: Little Golden Book

No one has illustrated animals with as much warmth, humor, and realism as Garth Williams. This classic–full of piglets, kittens, calves, and bunnies–is one of his best. Simple, humorous text identifies each fuzzy, furry, or feathery farm animal capering about the farm. This longtime favorite has been reissued for a new generation of kids, who will “pet” the animals on each page over and over again!

5.0 out of 5 stars The PERFECT book for teaching your toddler about animals! June 26, 1999

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

Twenty years ago, I used this book to teach my two younger siblings the names and sounds of the farm animals. We read it until it fell apart! I recently purchased a new copy for my two children...and they love it, too! The illustrations are magnificent! Children will love to read this book again and again. A timeless classic!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an excellent nursery favorite October 6, 2005

We have children at different ages and reading skill levels, yet this one satisfies the crowd. The pictures are excellent, the text large and clear, and the animal descriptions are accurate and fun, and easy to memorize (your children will soon "read along" with you). A top pick and a crowd pleaser when our oldest dughter gets to pick a book for her siblings.

I remember reading this book when I was a little girl, and loving the beautiful illustrations. Now my little girl is reading the book and loving it as much as I did. Garth Williams did a great job with the artwork. It's a great book for introducing infants and toddlers to the world of farm animals.
