This book tells the story of farmers and life on a farm. What do farmers do? What tools and equipment do they use? Who helps them? Livestock, crops and daily chores are perfectly captured in descriptive photography.

With full-colour, full-page photographs throughout plus straightforward and engaging text, the I Want to Be ... series is an appealing introduction to a broad spectrum of occupations. The series gives young children a realistic insight into the working day of adults. Easy-to-read captions and colour photographs of women and men from different cultures help children understand what's involved in each occupation. Young readers learn to respect the importance of doing a job well and appreciate the contributions these workers make to our life and the world around us.

These books are perfect for reading alone or in group story times. They are certain to spark questions and encourage dialogue and prompt children to learn more about these occupations.

Industry Reviews
Focuses primarily on traditional North American agricultural crops (apples, corn, pumpkins, wheat) and farm animals such as dairy cows, though one picture shows indoor farming. Of the many attractive photos, several depict children helping out on family farms... The series offers books that may be useful to teachers introducing careers to young children, and certain volumes will fit right into Community Helpers units as well.--Carolyn Phelan"Booklist" (11/15/2016)
