Can A Rooster Drive A Tractor?

By Shelley Richardson

A colorful, 32 page picture book for children 3-7, published in print by the Alabama Farmers Federation and written and illustrated by a sister and brother raised in the rural South. Using a question and answer format, it features Little Tractor who repeatedly asks all her barnyard friends if they can drive a tractor. The animated and sometimes costumed animals respond with rhyming answers that children can identify with and both children and adults find funny. Little Tractor teaches the importance of deciding to change a sad mood through persistent action by seeking help from animal friends and the farmer. It has been a favorite book of children during their formative years and parents have been asked to read it again and again.
