Stanley the Farmer - (Stanley Picture Books) by William Bee (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

It's another busy day for Stanley and friends on the farm!

From plowing the field, to planting and watering the seeds, to harvesting the wheat--all on his trusty red tractor, big green combine, blue baler, and trailer--Stanley the hamster has a lot to do on his farm. Luckily, his friends Shamus and Little Woo lend a helping hand.

Accessible text and brightly colored illustrations helpfully convey growing and harvesting for toddlers who love equipment, tools, and vehicles. After a hard day at work, Stanley winds down his day with a familiar supper and bath routine that makes this series a great pick for bedtime reading!

William Bee's beloved Stanley series is a trusted model for basic preschool concepts like colors and shapes, kindness and teamwork, jobs and daily routines. Toddlers will love hanging out with this adorable cast of friendly neighborhood critters in any of the available series titles. Help your little one collect them all!
