A tractor is a very big machine. It works on a farm.
Farmers use tractors every day. They help do many hard jobs.
A tractor has four large wheels. The back wheels are often much bigger than the front ones.
These big tires have deep lines. This helps the tractor move in the soft mud.
The tractor does not get stuck when it rains. It stays on top of the soil.
The farmer sits in a high seat. Some tractors have a roof to keep the farmer dry.
The farmer uses a big steering wheel to drive. There are many buttons to push, too.
Tractors are very strong and powerful. They can pull heavy tools behind them.
One big tool is called a plow. The plow turns the dark dirt over.
This makes the ground ready for new seeds. The dirt becomes soft and warm in the sun.
Another tool is a planter. The tractor pulls the planter to drop seeds in a row.
This helps the corn and wheat grow in straight lines. It is very neat.
In the fall, the tractor pulls a big wagon. The wagon is full of food from the fields.
The tractor moves the heavy food to the barn. It helps the farmer work very fast.
Some tractors are bright red. Other tractors are bright green or blue.
They have loud engines that go "vroom." You can hear the tractor from far away.
Farmers take good care of their machines. They check the oil and wash the tires.
A tractor is the most important tool on a farm. It is like a giant helper.
The tractor helps grow the food we eat every day. We are happy to see the tractor at work.
