I read this book today and I liked it and I learned that all animals have a baby there almost all called differ things like: a chickens baby is called a chick,a pigs baby is called a piglet,a cows baby is called a calf,a dogs baby is called a puppy,a sheep's baby is called a lamb,a goats baby is called a kid,a ducks baby is called a duckling,a horses baby is called eater a foal or a pony and a cats baby is called kitten. I think this book is great for kids that are just starting to learn how to read.

(Sam) The main point of this story is to teach you what animals are on a farm. I liked this book because it had a cute picture of a dog and her puppies.
(Bodhi) This story tells you the animals and some electronics that are on farms. The reason I liked it is because it has a cute picture of a baby pig on the cover.

It was good. I really like the animals. It was kind of funny. I liked the title. And I liked the front picture of it, because there's a picture of a pig sticking his head out.
