A fun, silly story about farm animals!

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on March 18, 2021

Verified Purchase

A fun, silly story about animals on a farm, which probably would intrigue many children who love animals and silliness. The story is beautifully illustrated which would probably be the biggest interest for most children. I found it, as an adult, a little hard to keep track of all the characters as there are so many for a children's read. The silliness will appeal to younger children 3-4, but it is a little long for children younger, and perhaps to silly for children older.

Kids loved this story, they giggled throughout and enjoyed the pictures. From my little one "one million thumbs up" We look forward to reading other stories.

Grass is greener on the other side of the fence!

Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on October 26, 2018

Nelly the pig and Carlos the duck live on the farm. Nelly is lazy and Carlos is an organizer.

When they have an argument Carlos decides to leave for a vacation and let Nelly handle everything while he is gone.

To show they care, Nelly and the other animals get together to make Carlos a cake for this birthday. But it does not go as planned and hilarity ensues.

The story is short and sweet and very easy to read. Children will enjoy the bright colourful pictures and the basic storyline.

I would recommend this book for young children.

I voluntarily read an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

Lovely

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on March 19, 2019

This is a lovely children's book with a good storyline. The illustrations are really cute and I liked the characters. However at times the speech sleeps a little. Could do with a minor tweak to make this book perfect.

Clumsy

Reviewed in Australia 🇦🇺 on March 14, 2019

Verified Purchase

This book starts well, but is quite clumsily written. There are a couple of spelling errors and superfluous words. My 4 yr old didn’t like the formatting because she couldn’t see the pictures as I was reading. There is potential to be a moral about forgiveness, but it is forgotten. And, spoiler alert, they didn’t eat the birthday cake.

Nelly (pig), & Carlos are best buddies.
1 day they got into a argument.
Carlos decided he was going on vacation.
Clance (dog) reminded him it was his birthday tomorrow.
Coco (mouse) wanted to know if he would be back in time.
Fritz (rooster) noticed Carlos was gone.

Will Carlos return?

I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review. Only an honest one.

A very awesome book cover, fabulous hand drawn colored pictures, great font & writing style. A very well written children’s book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great children’s movie, an animated cartoon, or better yet a mini TV series. There is no doubt in my mind this is a very easy rating of 5 stars.

Just Okay

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 28, 2019

Verified Purchase

It's Carlos's the duck's birthday and Nelly the pig is feeling bad that Carlos is away. She thinks she insulted Carlos and caused him to "go on holiday". Nelly plans a birthday party to make things up to him.

I can honestly say that this book is just "okay". The writing and dialogue is stilted and lacks interest, in my opinion. Having the text and illustrations on separate pages makes the story much more difficult to follow. It would have been easier and more enjoyable if readers could follow the story while seeing the illustrations at the same time.

I have a difficult time believing that this book will hold the interest of most children. The illustrations are cute, however. Apologies to the author, but I think this book could have been better.
