By Davina Bell

'A tractor has all different bits that attach:

a shovel for digging a vegetable patch;

a plough to turn earth so it’s ready for seeds;

a sharp blade to chop all your troublesome weeds.’

When Frankie McGee insists on borrowing yet another book about tractors, his mum crumbles. She begs him to read a book about something else – cars, planes, cranes, trains – anything! Frankie launches into all of the various, glorious factors that make up the love that he has for all tractors – but will he be able to bring his mum around?
