The More the Merrier Audrey Volkmann My 5 year old daughter absolutely loved this book about a farmer on his way to the fair who picks up animals along the way also headed to the fair. She was amused to see the cow sitting in the truck, chuckled at the sheep, but roared at the reaction of the farmer when the pigs joined the merry group. This story truly is a road to fun.. Daughter approved Fatima Vazquez My daughter loves all these books. I dont see why but she loves them, they're easy and repetitious. I thought they were too easy but she can sit there and read them over and over again. As long as she's happy :). C.M. said Grandson Raves!!. My grandson loves this book. First I read it to him and then he reads it to me he is "Grandson Raves!!" according to C.M.. My grandson loves this book. First I read it to him and then he reads it to me he is 2 years old. He has learned his colors and how to count from it. He knows every detail on every page. It is a bit boring for me, but what the hay!!. years old. He has learned his colors and how to count from it.

Children love to chant the catchy patterned rhymes ("Farmer, farmer, Going to the fair. Luckily his passengers are as helpful as he is and everyone gets out to push. A farmer's simple drive to the country fair turns into a chaotic journey as more and more of his animals want to climb aboard. The trip ends happily with a spectacular crash into the pie contest tent where everyone eats their fill. There's room to spare.") and return to the book again and again. The obliging farmer lets each group of animals join him -- first a single chicken, followed by two sheep, three pigs and four cows -- until his little truck gets stuck at the bottom of a steep hill. Chicken wants a ride. John Bianchi's wonky cartoon illustrations keep interest high and provide lots of laughs while effectively developing the theme of sharing.
