His uncle, aunt and cousin show him how to help about the farm, by collecting eggs, feeding the pigs, painting the barn, and herding the sheep. I'm sure girls would love it too, but it has a boy main character and I know that makes boys pay more attention.Įdward visits Hawthorne Farm for the first time. I think this would be a book geared towards boys and animal lovers. Why? What? Who? What do you think happens next? Why did he do that? Please make sure, to always TALK about what you read with your child and just read it. There is about a sentence per page, but the illustrations will have kids LAUGHING and open up lots of room for parents/adults to ask questions. There is not a lot of words, but the younger ones are more all about the pictures anyway. I won't lie, the illustrations make this book. This is a short, beautifully illustrated story that will interest kids around ages 3-5. The story makes it sound simple, but the pictures tell the real tale of Edwards day. The book covers a day of his visit, he gets to milk cows, feed pigs gather eggs, make maple syrup, plow and paint a barn among other activities. Edward goes to visit his aunt, uncle and cousin at Hawthorne Farm.
