PS
After their mothers warn them, "don't get lost," four young farm animals go for a walk and notice tasty treats (apples, hay, and turnips) in each field. The patterned illustrations show a tractor harvesting the crops right after the animals leave. Without the food landmarks to guide them home, the animals worry they're lost, but in a satisfying ending to the simple story, they find the farmyard, and their mothers give them a freshly picked dinner.
