Barn in Spring: Out to Explore on the Farm (Board Book)

“Barn feels the sun. Warmth floods her gables.

As winter retreats, she opens her stables…”

It’s springtime on the farm, and the animals (and their new babies!) are ready to get out of the barn and explore. The cows are happy to graze in the green pasture, the hen is busy at work building a nest, and the happy-go-lucky pigs have found a mucky mud puddle to wallow in!

Celebrate spring with this beautiful keepsake book that any farm-loving toddler is sure to love! Lyrically written in rhyming verse with gorgeously rich illustrations.

Chambrae Griffith lives in a barn-filled town in Utah. She loves hiking, running and being outdoors, unless it's cold. Then she prefers being snuggled in, safe and warm at home with her husband, four children and a good book. I've had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects ranging from children's books, branding art, product design, packaging art and design, animation, toy invention/development, and even a bookmobile. My client list includes the good people at Random House, Scholastic Books, Harper Collins, National Geographics, Highlights for Children, Mattel, Target, Fisher-Price, Hasbro, Merck, and the Mayo Clinic.

Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children's books. Our books are designed to spark curiosity in the littlest readers and fan the flames of lifelong learning. We understand children deserve our respect. That's why we always select artwork and stories that encourage caregivers to "read up" to their little ones--exploring interests together, learning together, and giving their young minds room to grow.

We also believe in creating stories that reflect the boundless possibilities of all children. We hope to create books that inspire little ones to connect, encourage them to dream, give them cause to celebrate, and allow them to see themselves beautifully reflected in the stories they read.

To bring these beautiful stories to life, our diverse and talented staff collaborates with authors and illustrators from all backgrounds and nationalities. We have also partnered with multicultural brands and literacy organizations to make sure our books reflect and reach as many little ones as possible.
