The grandparents found us an original copy that is in great condition! It's such a fun one!

[Benjamin Elliott]

I ran across this book in a used book store and thought it was a joke. The story was fine, I guess, but had the distinct feeling of propaganda, which was completely confirmed when I found out this was published by John Deere.
