Tractor Mac: New Friend by Billy Steers - ADVISABLE

Tractor Mac: New Friend by Billy Steers. PICTURE BOOK. Farrar Straus Giroux (Macmillan), 2015. $6. 9780374308155

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

A new tractor joins the farm to help clear a field that has been long forgotten. This tractor is overwhelmed at first, but she gets to work and is able to clear the field and see the literal fruits of her labor.

I am so glad the farmer that rode this new tractor was a girl. This book ends with a good lesson and has a good pace throughout. The appeal of this book will be somewhat limited to those who enjoy tractors.
