I received a copy of FARMING STRONG, ALL YEAR LONG which was a honor but bittersweet because FARMING STRONG, ALL YEAR LONG (Chronicle; on-sale 11/15/22) is the latest installment in the beloved Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site series, which has sold more than 5 million copies in the U.S. alone and has been translated into 33 languages.
I was blessed that Charlie grew up on these books and now my nieces, nephew and grandson Elijah are reading these books and loves them just as much as Charlie and I do. For Christmas knowing this is the last book in the series I would like to purchase all 5 of the book so Charlie can put them up for his own children when he is grown.
As well as get a set for myself then when the kids come and visit we would have books to read during the say. I asked Charlie to sit down and read FARMING STRONG, ALL YEAR LONG with me. Which I thought Charlie wouldn’t want to but as soon as he found out it is the last book he couldn’t wait to read the story and share it with his dad.
Charlie and I enjoyed all the illustrations and seeing which job each truck does. Having this book allowed me to share stories of my grandparents farm with Charlie. We will be using this book in our Homeschool Classes when we study Farms, Animals and Transportation. Would you like to join us in Charlie’s class then you can read FARMING STRONG, ALL YEAR LONG as well.
