This book is very educational and I really enjoyed it! Anybody reading this will learn so much about farm animals because there are so many facts given throughout the book. The pictures in it are actual photographs which helps put you on the farm and see what exactly they mean when talking about milking cows and pigs rolling in mud. Also, there is a vocabulary list as well as an index in the back of the book which really benefits the reader if they are having trouble understanding. This would be an exceptional book for students doing projects or reports on farm animals because it has so much depth as far as facts go.
