One of the hardest workers on Longdown Activity Farm is not a farmer. It’s not even an animal. It’s a red Massey Ferguson tractor, called Ruby.

Join Ruby, and Farmer Toby, as they get ready for another day of bumpy tractor rides, taking school groups and families on trips around the field.

This the eighth picture book in the popular Longdown Activity Farm series, and the first book not to feature an animal. With tractors being such a captivating sight, especially with children, Longdown’s tractor driver Farmer Toby (Toby Francis) put pen to paper to write a tale about his experiences with this exceptional machine. As always, illustrations are provided by long-time Longdown collaborator Simon Chadwick, bringing Ruby’s story to life.
