Using a fictional framework to explore two different types of farms, the book introduces Nick, whose family owns a vegetable farm in Ohio, and his cousin Karin, who lives on a cattle ranch in Nebraska. The simple, informative text and friendly color illustrations follow each farm through a season, identifying the machinery, chores, and workers needed to keep each farm running smoothly.
