What can go wrong when the farmer loses her pyjamas? Everything! A delightful read-aloud (again and again!) from award-winning creator Ruth Paul.

Before the farmer’s day is done, she does her chores, one by one. She milks the cow, counts the sheep, sings the piglets off to sleep.

The farmer needs her favourite pyjamas to sleep well after her hard day's work. But now her pyjamas are gone! Where could they be?

Reviews for The Farmer's Pyjamas

The Farmers Pyjamas is a fun read aloud experience for children aged 2-7 including those learning to read independently. Children will enjoy the simple but witty rhyming text, and giggle at the farmers misfortunes as she ""pushes the piglets into the coop, and feeds the chickens a scooper of poop."" Paul's simple expressive illustrations are similarly filled with humorous details, from the farmer's belly button peeking out of her shirt to underwear fluttering on the washing line. Paul's depiction of a farmer as a kindly woman with greying hair and a bright blue bandage on her knee is a refreshing change from the classic overall-clad male farmer. * Books + Publishing *
