Perhaps over concepted with numbers colors and farm animals machinery would be difficult to incorporate into a group setting 32 A part of life on the farm with colors numbers and terms such as reaping thresher and ewes make for a nice story 32 Cute story Let the kids announce barn colors 32 This book is really cute in the way it uses letters and colors to talk about life on the farm and things someone might experience while living on a farm I think it would be most beneficial for counting or addition practice Adding the various items the book talks about would be useful when students first begin working with word problems and in kindergarten at least it would tie in with the community helpers unit 32 The author was a bit too overreaching with this feat Tackling colors and numbers with a rhyme didn t work for this particular book partly due to its brevity and partly due to the Bill Martin Jr esque repetition Eventually it drops off the numbers and later on even the colors until it s just naming objects in the farmer s house 32 Farm Life reveals what is inside the barns on Farmer Dan s farm Farm LifeWith challenging vocabulary and lovely watercolor artwork this book brings life on the farm to life number by number by color. Farm Life kindle cloud Gray barn gray barn what do you house Nine straw filled stallswith nine sleepy sows 32 Cute picture book that celebrates the joys of living on a family farm However it feels a bit like the author tried to cover a bit too much concept territory in such a short book with teaching colors and numbers yet also trying to create rhythmic rhyming lines Although it felt a bit too wordy for the rhythmic lines the repeated line This is the farm life but only a part I loved how that ultimately turned into This is the farm life the whole and the heart Nevertheless this is a good picture book to share with farm loving kids for it s cute pictures and text as well as its message of love and family on the farm 32 What a great glimpse into the world of family farming 32 While not perhaps an exceptional example of a picture book this one spoke to me in a way picture books rarely do I was all misty eyed by the end Not the best example of a book about colors or counting it is nevertheless a gorgeous picture of the joys of farm life 32 This book was different than many farm picture books I have read in the past The vocabulary is a little challenging for example fillies heifers sows but the story flows well It encourages counting and also color recognition with different colored barns It also has a sweet message at the end Would be good for toddler young preschool storytime 32
