"The Funny Farm books is a gorgeous series for helping little ones develop early skills." Reading Zone

"Lots of fun to read aloud with plenty of interactive opportunities. It is colourful and sturdy enough for less gentle small hands and there are pop-up chicks, flaps to open and rhymes to join in with, so this would be great to share in an early years setting" SJL
