My thoughts on Mickey on the Move: Farming

Today, I have a review of Mickey on the Move: Farming by Michelle Wagner. Young Mickey has cochlear implants that limit his outdoor fun because he can’t get them wet. His Dr fits him with waterproof implants. What a difference it makes in his life!

The sheer joy Mickey exhibits by playing in the rain, jumping in puddles, and enjoying activities all children love warms my heart.

Mickey also explains many of his farming chores. We see him feeding the chickens, working in the raised-bed gardens, sneaking grapes from the vines, and playing in the creek.

It’s special to see a book written that includes so many everyday wonders experienced through youthful, exuberant eyes…and ears.

The illustrations by Jenny Phelps are spot on and enhance the story.

I also reviewed Book 1 of the series:

I received a copy of the book for the tour. This review is my honest, unbiased opinion.
