Customer Reviews

This book expands from basic farm animals to details about them

This farm book is great because it contains real photos of the animals along with decent quality sound that must be activated by your child with a button. The pages expand to include details about each animal that is more for your toddler. The quality of the book binding is also good so it can take a beating from your teething infant.

Best Book Ever

If your child loves farm animals this book is a must! My daughter loved this book at age one! She learned a lot from this book too. She is almost 4 and still reads it. When she is finished I will take the batteries out and keep it for her so she can share with her children one day.

Not much of a plot, but great sound effects

I have recommended this book countless times. I have one copy at work, which has been taped over because of enthusiastic fingers. I have one copy at home on standby because it is a staple in my classroom. If I leave my students alone for any length of time, this gets pulled out and buttons get pushed. I highly recommend this for young children, children on the autism spectrum, and children who need to practice moving their mouths for better speech. Get your copy quickly; it is no longer in print and the price will skyrocket when the number of copies dwindle.

Taught my 15 month old all the animal sounds

My son received this book when he was 13 months old. The noises are a bit loud and he was afraid of the barking dog for a few days. But, he got over it, and he learned to make all the animals sounds by the time he was 15 months. He is now 20 months and it is still a favorite. One extra that we discovered is that there is a tiny ladybug on each animal's page, so that is fun to search for as well. This book is very sturdy and an excellent deal!

Kid-tested & approved - 4yo LOVES this book!

This is a FUN book, for kids and parents, an ideal holiday gift. It's a "noisy" book, with 8 buttons for the various barnyard animal sounds, but not annoying! Sounds on the Farm is very clever: each page has a short, age-appropriate riddle, i.e. "I walk with a waddle on my webbed feet. Who am I?" On the facing page is a colored barn, and the direction to "PUSH the yellow button to HEAR me. OPEN the barn door to SEE me." The sounds are authentic, the pictures are great, and the book is sturdy (important in a flap book!). The riddle page also folds open to reveal a colorful drawing of the animal on the barnyard with "Did You Know?" facts and information--again, age-appropriate, which is wonderful. My four-year-old enjoyed the facts as much as the game of the riddle and the sound. Very, very cool! Sherri Caldwell, co-author, The Rebel Housewife Rules: To Heck With Domestic Bliss!
