Review: Great pictures, easy reading - This is one of my 1.5 year old's favorite bedtime books. While it is easily informative enough for a grade schooler, the photographs and simple, straightforward explanations make it a great read for a toddler as well. I even learned a bit about tractors and farming that I didn't know. Many other books like this are either pedantic or too advanced -- this and the other books in this series (we also have Bulldozers and Fire Trucks) are really a nice balance of good information and good writing. Review: Great Gift Idea - This book is perfect for any little boy or girl who likes learning about machinery. The pictures and colors were amazing!

Twins are Happy!
Our collection started from a school book order. My 5 year old twin boys adore these books. They are short, have simple language, and great photographs! Since my boys love tractors, this is their favorite!

Farming Fun!
Our theme for time with our 5 grandsons was "Mighty Machines"! They got to help their Dads drive the tractor, crawler and Mule. And...one just loved sitting on the tractor and pretending! Each family took home this book. Camp Kimwood was fun for all ages!

Pictures of real tractors
Has large pictures of tractors but the people in the pictures appear outdated. Surprised they even included a picture of how weeds are dealt with on organic farms instead of only mentioning the use of crop sprayers.

Tractors and Farm Vehicles
Thought this would be English tractors.No indication that it was Canadian.My nephew's favourite tractor it's a John Deere..The book was still very interesting and was still a good buy.
