Overview

Watch Get Rolling with Otis on Apple TV!

From Loren Long, the New York Times bestselling illustrator of Change Sings by Amanda Gorman, comes Otis the tractor! A sweet and endearing story of friendship.

Otis is a special tractor. He loves his farm and farmer. He particularly loves the little calf in the next stall, whom he purrs to sleep with his soft motor. The two become great friends, romping in the fields, leaping bales of hay, and playing ring-around-the-rosy by Mud Pond.

But when the big yellow tractor comes to the farm and replaces Otis, he is cast away behind the barn. . . until the little calf gets stuck in Mud Pond. Then there is only one tractor–and it’s not big or yellow–who saves the day. It’s little Otis!

With gorgeous illustrations from the critically-acclaimed Loren Long, this charming and unforgettable story about everyone’s favorite little tractor is the perfect bedtime read-aloud!
