Clarkson's Farm star Kaleb Cooper set to launch children's book

Farmer and Clarkson's Farm star Kaleb Cooper is set to launch his first children's book, Kaleb's Farmyard Tales, inspired by his own farming adventure.

Aimed at children aged five to seven, the book will feature stories guaranteed to entertain all farm-mad fans with tales of escaping animals and a lot of tractor talk.

GET FARMING INTO SCHOOLS: Sign the petition to get rural education onto the curriculum

Kaleb Cooper says: "I cannot tell you how exciting it is writing a farming book for kids. I am so passionate about sharing how brilliant our industry is and supporting new young farmers into the best job on earth.

"But it does not matter what you want to be when you grow up – I believe every child should understand where their breakfast, lunch and dinner actually comes from. I hope this book gives every reader a lot of laughs while they learn. I cannot wait to put it on my kids' bookshelf and make them proud."
