A sweetly rendered story about a young child who imagines his toys coming to life. Will loves his farm animal toys: a horse, a cow, a sheep and a pig. He calls his horse Orsey, his cow Dow, his sheep Bah, and his pig Wink-Wink. His family calls him Farmer Will. And when Farmer Will rounds his animals up in his hat and takes them outside, something amazing happens: the animals become real. Together, Farmer Will and his animals play lots of games until, when they are very, very tired, Will picks them up and tucks them up in bed with him, "the happiest little farmer in the whole wide world." * Sparely, eloquently told and illustrated in the gentle colours of a country springtime. * Sure to be instantly popular with young children who are devoted to their toys, and live and play in the world of the imagination. * By the author/illustrator of the international bestseller Baby Angels.
