The Old Red Tractor

(3) K-3 Translated by Marianne Martens. Illustrated by Daniel Sohr. Readers will empathize with Tony, who becomes disenchanted with his old toy riding tractor after seeing his neighbor's fancy new one. He doesn't mind--at first--when he wrecks his tractor, but life is pretty boring without his favorite toy, so he asks Uncle Bob to help fix it. Expressive, homey illustrations offer a glimpse of Tony's life on a farm.
Reviewer: Martha Sibert
