Big tires built for traction—
Roll, Green Tractor, into action!

It's Harvest Day at the farm, but before the kids arrive, Green Tractor must help their farmer friend get everything ready. Follow along as Green Tractor helps prepare, moving big stacks of hay using the hayfork and plowing the land for the pumpkin races. And when the kids get there, it's time for Green Tractor to shine by pulling the wagon for the hayride! Young readers will love exploring the visually appealing illustrations, mimicking Green Tractor’s sound effects, and learning all about these important farm vehicles.

This charming read-aloud will have little farmers coming back for a pick-me-up again and again.
"Delightful . . . [An] engaging read natural for group sharing. Crisp digital illustrations showcase a variety of green shades in a perfect complement to the text." --School Library Journal
