Our Favorite Bedtime Stories

Guilty. I know the importance of reading to our kids but guess what, I am not very good at regularly reading stories to our kids, especially before bedtime. Life happens and I have enough excuses on why I don’t read to them daily to fill this entire page.

But I decided enough was enough. Nightly bedtime story-time was a habit I needed to do. No more excuses.

Therefore, I decided to compile a few of our favorite farm related stories which you need to have in your library! Disclaimer – This post contains affiliate links. If you purchase an item below. I may receive a small commission at no cost to you.

Farm Nursery Songs

By: Jessica Peters – a real legit dairy farmer from Pennsylvania. Jess takes the nursery rhymes we all know and does a fun agriculture / dairy related twist on them. The book includes real photos of little brown cows and tractors from Spruce Row Farm. Before you know it, you are singing.

 

 

 

 

 

Meet Pete

By: Jennifer Campbell – such a great story about how a young girl adopts a newborn calf who needs such special attention. Jennifer (the author) is a grain, pig and cattle farmer from Indiana.

A perfect book for toddlers. After you read it to them a few times, it won’t be long before they read it to you. If you youngster prefer construction equipment, make sure you also purchase Good Night Digger.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Charlie the Ranch Dog

By: Ree Drummond

Yes, I may idolize Ree Drummond but for very good reason. I could read Charlie the Ranch Dog every night and not get tired of it. Charlie is the most loveable Bassett Hound who lives on his family’s cattle ranch in Oklahoma.  You may also like: Charlie Goes to School, Charlie and the New Baby, Charlie Plays Ball, Charlie and the Christmas Kitty or Little Ree.
