Book Review

Dylan: I love the pictures in this book and finding all the animals. I especially like the ending when you find mummy chicken.

Mum and dad: The illustrations in this book are lovely, and the board book pages with cut-outs make it easy for Dylan to handle and turn the pages. The ending delights him every time, as he loves shouting out “mummy chicken!”

It also makes him laugh when there’s the “great big cow and tiny mouse”.

About the Book

Who can you find on the farm? Join Little Chick and peep through the cut-outs on each spread to spy a whole host of animals.

And there is a very special someone waiting at the end of the book
