Harvest

cute book, but it had a short span of interest since it is only a few pages and very simple. However, my daughter really enjoyed it as a young toddler/ older infant - especially the last page that shows a kid enjoying an apple.

My 2 year old son loves the pictures of tractors and combines in this book! These are real, working pictures of tractors that have a lot of detail. After less than a month though, the first fold out page has been torn out. The pages fold out in different directions making it a bit confusing for him and then they get folded the wrong way making them weak and able to tear at the fold.

I picked this book up for my daughter (11 months) at the Kroger grocery thinking it would be a good book to incorperate into the books for the fall season. We began to read the book and she loves it. It is the same functional format and publisher as the books Words in my world and Noisy animals, which are great too! The book starts out introducing where food comes from and then takes you on to each typical food that is harvested on the farm. The thing my daughter loves about it is that it has large full page flaps for her to open on each page that open to revieal a photo spread. Really interactive. It starts out asking a question, "where does corn grow?" and baby opens the flap to reveal a picture of the field or orcherd or part of farm where the food comes from. The tractor character then tells you more information about how that particular tractor harvests the food. It is very fun to read and My daughter never gets tired of wondering what is behind each flap page. Great book for Autumn. We are getting ready to buy another copy because she has choosen this book as a chew toy as well.
