What would life be like if you lived on a farm?

And what kind of farm would it be?

A flower farm or a dairy farm?

An aquaponics farm or an alpaca farm?

An orange grove or a mushroom farm?

What would life be like if you lived on a farm? Would you sway with a rainbow of petals in the breeze, or play peek-a-boo with a pop of mushrooms in the cool, dark? Written in beautiful, lyrical language, this gorgeously illustrated picture book features an eclectic variety of modern farming and supportive backmatter that are sure to delight and inspire young readers.
