?The farmer plants
early in the spring.
He?ll be lucky
if he harvests a thing!?

So begins this charming story in verse about the running battle between a farm family and the mischievous animals that plunder their fields.

All summer long the young farmer and his wife are hard-pressed to protect their growing crops.

In rollicking verse and wonderful illustrations, Dahlov Ipcar tells of all the hard work that goes into making a bountiful fall harvest. Buy Here
