1.0 out of 5 stars Not Recommended, January 7, 2004
This review is from: Barney Goes To The Farm (Paperback)
Although this book does portray chores associated with farming accurately, this Barney book has the worst photography I have seen. Apparently some of the photos were taken very late in the day, by the length of the shadows, which makes the pictures light-deprived. Also, many of the photos are simply extremely dark, even those inside the barn, losing details to muddiness - certainly not a child-friendly picture book.

Factually, the "cow" pictured is really a heifer, and not capable of being milked.

I also think value of the phrase "Aye yie yie!" used by BJ two times is questionable; why not easily read phrases like "Wow", "Gosh", "Golly", "My Goodness", or "Jeepers"?

There are many good books for preschoolers about life on a farm - this is not one of them.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the Best of Barney, September 4, 2009
We love Barney and have lots of Barney materials in our home. This book however has never been a favorite and I am not exactly sure why. Perhaps it has something to do with the pictures. As someone noted previously some of them are darkish. In addition, I would also say that some have parts that are out of focus, while others just have a strange color contrast to them.

That said, this Barney book covers a *typical* farm day with activities such as milking, feeding the animals, and picking vegetables. It covers familiar farm places and animals: home, barn, rooster, horse, hay, cows, hens and eggs, tractor, corn, scarecrow, and vegetables. It just doesn't do it in Barney style and I would suggest that you just give this one a pass.
