While all of the animals are claiming to own the farm, Horse points out that the farm does indeed belong to Hen, and Duck, and Pig, and Sheep, and Cow individually--but that it also belongs to all of them as a group! Young readers will explore the topics of sharing, cooperation, friendship, and inclusion in this bright, colorful board book that features peek-through pages.
