Review: Topsy and Tim At the Farm


Topsy and Tim At the Farm
Written by Jean and Gareth Adamson
Illustrated by Belinda Worsley

Publication Date: 2010
Publisher: Ladybird Books Ltd
ISBN: 978-1-40930-336-7

Summary/back cover:
Topsy and Tim have all sorts of new experiences – just like you! Read all about the twins’ exciting day out at the farm.

Review:
Topsy and Tim are a series of stories about girl/boy twins who live in a village in the United Kingdom and go through the same sort of experiences most children encounter. Some of the other books in the series are Topsy and Tim Start School, Topsy and Tim Have a Birthday Party, and Topsy and Tim Learn to Swim.

In Topsy and Tim At the Farm the children accompany their mum to her friend’s farm, where the children collect eggs, dodge angry geese and help a calf learn to drink milk.

At the end of the story there is a basic puzzle that is suitable for even my two year olds to try, although probably better suited to the 3+ age group.

My rating: 3.8 out of 5
