Synopsis:
A Flap-Filled Farmyard Fiasco–If You Dare to Peek! The farm is peaceful. The animals are resting. The farmer has one simple request: Whatever you do… DON’T open the barn door!Welcome to a hilarious, hands-on tour of a very orderly farm where things run smoothly–as long as curious readers don’t go snooping behind those flappy doors. But let’s be honest: with big, irresistible flaps and a clear invitation to mischief, how can anyone resist?Every spread in Don’t Open the Barn Door! features a new off-limits door on the farm–from the pigpen to the chicken coop to the goat shed. Lift the flap, and suddenly: farmyard chaos erupts! Pigs in the pantry. Chickens in the cornfield. Goats in the getaway truck?!
Review:
This board book teaches kids that their actions have consequences. On each page, the farmer tells the reader not to open the barn door, the silo, the gate, among other places on the farm. When the reader opens the flap, or door, chaos ensues. The animals come flying out, which is exactly what the farmer didn’t want to happen. This teaches kids that you have to follow the rules for a good reason.
Don’t Open the Barn Door is a fun children’s board book!
