Little Golden Book Collection: Farm Tales

My 4 year old grandson loves farms and farm animals. This is one of his favorite books. I would highly recommend it. The stories are funny, educational and sweet. The illustrations are wonderful.

You grew up on the Little Golden Books; now you can pass those stories along to your children with this great series. Printed on high-quality paper with gilt edges in a hardbound edition that's sure to last for ages, its surprising how affordable the books in the Little Golden Book Treasury series are. Each has more than 300 pages, and contains numerous stories such as Scuffy the Tugboat, The Poky Little Puppy, Tawny Scrawny Lion, The Saggy Baggy Elephant. Pages are larger and more colorful than the original Little Golden Books. My kids love them!

This book and the other collections (farm tales, animal tales) are very well done! They are much more enjoyable to read than the "treasury" collections of little golden books which condense the stories, leaving out parts and omitting many of the illustrations. In these books the stories are complete, the pages are glossy, and the illustrations are bright and colorful. My children are able to enjoy reading the old Golden Books that are no longer available individually. We especially love the illustrations by Eloise Wilkin!

Farm Tales is a parent/child reader which gathers together some of the best Little Golden Books for kids and places them under one keepsake hardcover - some twelve titles in all - providing the third in a series of keepsake reprints of childhood classics. Gold-tipped pages accompany full color reprints of such timeless tales as Shy Little Kitten, Baby Farm Animals, Little Red Hen and many more. Perfect for read-aloud pleasure with preschoolers and kindergarteners.
