"Old Red" is inspired by the bright red tractors I see so often in the rural area in which I live.
Old Red dreams of her glory days while waiting in a barn… will she get a chance to be useful again? Old Red used to love working on the farm. But when her farmer retired, she got stored in the barn. Abandoned. Now Red just sits—slowly rusting and collecting dust. Her only friends are the spiders that spin their silky webs around her. As she rests she remembers how useful she once was. One day an energetic young man comes to visit. He admires Red and looks beneath her faded paint to see the majestic tractor that she once was . . .Will Red get a chance to shine in the sun again? Old Red is a beautifully illustrated children’s book that shows the many things a tractor can do and teaches an important lesson—old items can be restored and made useful. If you like an uplifting story, you will enjoy reading Old Red’s second chance at life to kids. Please click here to visit amazon to purchase.
