I accessed a digital review copy of this book from the publisher.
The book shows farms around the world. The photographs are bright and full of life.

Amazing images! We just loved looking at all the pictures of farms all over the world. Such beautiful graphics of all different types of farms and tidbits of information about what makes them unique. The perfect book for this farm family's coffee table!

What amazing scenery, what amazing photographs and what an amazing way to see how our food is grown, made or harvested. These days when all things come from a supermarket shelf, it is hard, not only for us, but especially to children, to understand the magic of farming, in the animals and people involved in the process making a living from farming.
Great book, beautifully presented and should be in every library, especially where children read. . Thanks you NetGalley and the publishers for the DRC

A photography book highlighting farming around the world. The book is broken sections by continents: Europe, Asia and the Pacific, Africa, North American, and Central and South America. I was surprised at the wide variety of farming shown. Everything from cattle and sheep to grapes, cocoa, coffee, olives, berries, etc. Some photos were beautiful other looked more stock photos from the internet. The farming techniques vary around the world. There are small blurbs about the photos but there isn’t much detailed information that would make this a good reference book about farming. This is first and foremost a photo book. But I enjoyed looking through its pages.

Thank you to NetGalley and Amber Books Ltd. for the temporary eARC in exchange for an honest review.
