K-3On the Farm series.
The books in this series are intended for emerging readers and use in early intervention reading programs. The information is slight ("Cows moo." "Chickens peck at their food") and the language is not descriptive, but the format, with a table of contents and an index, introduces children to nonfiction. The glossary (which will require adult help) is almost more informative than the text, which is accompanied by color photos. Bib. [Review covers these On the Farm titles: Chickens on the Farm, Cows on the Farm, Pigs on the Farm, Sheep on the Farm.]
