Farm Anatomy fits perfectly into my growing collection of books that will come in handy when I give up city life for green acres. (Or more realistically, when I'm sitting in my city apartment needing a quick armchair-style escape.)

This book is beautiful!! We ordered it as a companion for some homeschool reading we are doing this fall, and I’m so happy with it! The illustrations are so lovely, and the book is packed with information that goes way beyond a child’s basic comprehension, so it’ll be a tool in our family library for years to come. There’s everything from types of farm equipment to recipes & garden tips! Target’s price point on this was the best I found anywhere. I do wish the publisher had a hardcover available, but that’s certainly not a complaint. I can’t wait to add the rest of these books to our collection!
