      Children in farming communities may find this picture book biography of the nineteenth-century inventor of a game-changing plow quite interesting. However, the narrative goes on a couple of undeveloped tangents, and the slick digital illustrations have a tonally mismatched comic-book aesthetic (especially when portraying people). Afterword and critical thinking questions appended. Reading list. Glos.
