Customer Reviews

busy barnyard...GREAT

my son, 18 mos, really likes this book. he also likes busy doggies. i plan to purchase more books in this set. good pics, simple text. no regrets.

Ideal for babies and preschoolers

The entire "Busy" series is engaging and fun for kids and parents alike. A great way to introduce your child to books, nature, language.

Great photos

My 18-month-old daughter loves the books. The photos are great, texts are witty. This book is not as funny as Busy Doggies and Busy Kitties but is a wonderful addition to my child's bookcase anyway.

Great farm animal photos

What do farm animals do all day? Well, they certainly stay busy, busy, busy! Kind of like the kiddos that will read all about them in Busy Barnyard. Sixth in Tricycle Press' Busy board book series, Busy Barnyard takes an up close and personal look at farm animals on-location doing what they do best. In lyrical fashion, the author/photographer team perfectly complement one another to catch the essence of barnyard life. This isn't your typical "cows moo" book either. No, instead the animals romp, kiss, scrub and boss--and there is a little humor also with crossing chickens. I've never met a child that wasn't fascinated with farm animals. This sturdy board book will be a welcome addition to any toddler's library. Armchair Interviews says: Busy Barnyard is a lively look at farm life for the toddling crowd.

"Busy" Books are the Best!

My son, now 2 years old, has loved all the "Busy" books by John Schindel since he was about 18 months old. He especially loves Busy Piggies, Busy Penguins, Busy Doggies and Busy Kitties...goes through them almost daily still. Now he loves Busy Barnyard...the photos are great! Unlike the other books, Busy Barnyard has a wide variety of different animals: cows, chickens, horses, goats, geese, pigs, rabbits, cats and lambs. Fun for both kids and parents!
