Animals On The Farm, written and illustrated by Jan Pfloog. A Little Golden Book, no. 573, published in 1968 by Golden Press, New York and printed in the USA by Western Publishing Co. Copyright 1968. Hardcover book, 24 pages.
Synopsis: "Animals on the Farm" is a simple, child-friendly introduction to common farm animals. Written in a straightforward, rhythmic style and paired with Pfloog’s soft, colorful illustrations, the book takes young readers on a tour of a farmyard.
Each page highlights a different animal—such as cows, horses, pigs, sheep, ducks, chickens, and dogs—showing what they look like, the sounds they make, and the role they play on the farm. The text emphasizes their movements and behaviors (for example, cows grazing, pigs rolling in mud, or hens laying eggs), making it engaging for children who are just beginning to learn about animals and their environments.
The book functions as an early concept book, helping preschoolers recognize animals, associate them with their sounds and actions, and build vocabulary through repetition and familiar farmyard imagery.
Condition: The book is in overall good plus condition. The gold beige background paper on the inside of the back cover has a 2 inch tear on the bottom near the spine (see last two photos), and there is light wear on the front cover's corner tips.
