Fergus, the Little Blue Tractor

Fergus, the little blue tractor, lives on Smithfield farm with his friends Hamish the horse and the wise old owl. Fergus is well liked by all the farm animals and is farmer Smithfield's favourite tractor. Fergus loves helping farmer Smithfield, regardless of how hard the chores are. Fergus and the farmer always get them done together.

Life is good on the farm until one day, without Smithfield, a shiny new big red tractor arrived to start the day's chores. When Fergus and Big Red meet, Fergus is pushed aside as confidently and boastfully Big Red tells Fergus's friends that he is the farmer's new tractor, and there is nothing he can't do!

Sadly, after many years of hard work on the farm, Fergus was no longer needed. What would become of Fergus? What possible use could a little old tractor ever be now? Will Fergus remain rusting away in the barn, or will the ferocious storm leave the farmer in need of help? Who possibly could the farmer turn to when all else has failed?

This feel-good bedtime story from children's author Simon Lawrence will warm your heart and have you cheering for the underdog.
