Best farm book out there!
I am very happy with this book! This is the best book about the farm!! I had previously purchased “My First Words” and “My First Animals” tabbed board books and loved them but I wasn’t sure about a book this size just over the farm. I was worried that it would be redundant especially since the both of the books I have has a page on the farm. I decided to go for it when I saw it was on sale and it did not disappoint. My toddler is at the stage in her communication of putting two to three words together and using adjectives and this book is perfect for that as it has images of a saddleback pig, a brown nanny goat, a horse and cart, a black stallion, etc. This book is excellent for a toddler who already knows a lot of words and needs a challenge so they can learn words like pitchfork, fence, horseshoe, pigsty, etc. As always I love that every picture is realistic. The book also has questions written throughout that help provide ideas to talk about and are great for a 3-4 year old. This book grows with your child! The other day I saw a goat and recognized it as the white nanny goat. I never knew different names of goats but now I do!

We have plenty of books about farm animals but this was the first using real pictures. It’s great to show the various markings of similar animals. It helped my toddler understand that not all cows are black and white, or all pigs pink.

Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2015
We first bought the "My First Words: Let's Get Talking" book by DK publishing. It was the only book our toddler liked. So at about 20 months when language development was really taking off, we also purchased "My First Busy Home", "My First Animals", "My First Colors" and "My First Farm". All of them are great. I will repeat what another reviewer said, some of the photographs are reused in the books, but not so that you feel like its the same book. The pages are bright, colorful and filled with photographs of real things, not illustrations (that was important to us)! Our toddler's favorites are the Animals and Farm book, followed closely by the Words and Busy Home book. Colors is currently at the bottom of the list.

If your toddler is as rough on board books as ours is, I'd recommend reinforcing the spine with packing tape. That's not a fault of these books, just well-used board books in general!

I also read someone complain about the Farm book having milk and cheese on the goat and cow pages, but no bacon on the pig page. To clarify, NONE of the animal pages show meat products of farming. There's wool for the sheep page; eggs from chickens and geese; milk and cheese from goats; and milk, cheese and butter from cows. There aren't any lamb chops or steaks shown, so it's consistent- only non-meat products of animal husbandry are shown. I personally don't have a problem with it.

This is my 3rd purchase of this book. We have quite a few young kids in our extended family and without exception, this is their favorite book. The reason I have bought so many is that each one has been read so many times each has worn out. The book is a board book and very sturdy. The animals are lifelike photos and not drawings. The littlest ones love to look at each animal. For farm machine lovers there are several pages of those as well. There are also simple activities on each page that older toddlers and preschoolers can enjoy. As long as we have young ones in our family, I will have this book in my house.

THis is a great book for little ones. Purchased for my granddaughter, and it is her favorite book.It is the first book she goes for. I am a farmer, and this book has very good pictures instead of sketches as I have seen in other books. I would recommend this book to any one with children.Very easy for child to turn pages which are well constructed. Fun to show them pictures and do animal noise associated with picture. Even more fun when they see real animals and tell you sound the animals make.

Love the DK tabbed board books! They are sturdy and great for vocabulary development. I have used them for all 7 grandchildren and they love identifying the objects and flipping to the different tabs. The photographs are very good.

It has a whole page dedicated to cows... and my kid loves cows. It has been his favorite book for months and has held up under normal toddler wear and tear. Great color, pictures and quality. Purchased several for toddler friends.
