by ,
(27 reviews)

This series is the perfect next step from picture books for readers aged 5+, written by children's books icon Michael Morpurgo. 

Each book tells three farm stories and has black-and-white illustrations throughout by Guy Parker-Rees. Every mini-story in the book is short and uplifting, and full of friendship and adventure. You'll get to meet a boy who saves a family of swallows, rescue a fishing boat in trouble, find out how a farm cat forms a very special connection with a young girl and so much more...

These story collections celebrate the countryside and the way its landscape and animals can leave an impression on a child’s heart forever, perfect for fans of Mudpuddle Farm, Silver Street Farm and Magic Farm.
