Join Farmer Tom and his wife, Diane, on an adventure where they discover the animals, crops, and activities happening around their small farm. The author's style of lyrical, rhyming verse captures our imagination, while the light-hearted outdoor journey reminds us of the simple joy found in stepping away from our screens to appreciate connections with nature, animals, and ultimately, ourselves. Diane Rasmussen was raised in the Midwest and always wanted to live on a farm. Instead, she made do with summer trips to relatives who lived on farms, spending hours freely exploring the great outdoors with her brothers while the adults chatted inside. She has always been captivated by animals, interesting buildings, and all manner of random curiosities. Rasmussen entertained her niece and nephews over the years with random stories and rhymes. Today, Rasmussen enjoys a peaceful life on a small hobby farm outside of Des Moines, Iowa, with her very own Farmer Tom. Their delightful, funny, and occasionally chaotic experiences in the countryside have inspired them to share their stories and green space with many friends and visitors, and now with the world through Diane's writing.
