Bookseller Review
by Kasia Janczewski

A fun book that uses rhyme to validate and indulge childhood fascinations in particular subjects, like Tractors! A great reminder for us all to let kids explore their interests and curiosities free from grown-up judgement and expectations. It reads aloud brilliantly. I love the wit and humour of the text in this picture book, as well as the diversity of tractor operators in the illustrations. It is also a wonderful celebration of the invaluable importance and role of libraries and librarians in supporting childhood literacy and a lifelong love of reading!
