Are you picky about what brand of tractor you're going to write about? I ask this because some tractors are easier to drive than others. A neighbor taught his 8 year old daughter to drive a John Deere (sometimes a B, sometimes an A) pulling a hay wagon between rows of hay bales in the field as several farmers loaded the bales on the wagon. Those 2 cylinder John Deeres were relatively easy to drive because they had hand operated clutches versus almost every other brand which used a foot clutch. They also had a flat platform to stand on which provided a safe place for an "instructor" plus the driver. Ours also all had fenders. One day little Nancy called to her father saying that the handle (clutch lever) was too hot to touch. We didn't realize it, but she'd been slipping the clutch because it was a little too hard for her to push the clutch lever all the way forward to lock it in position. The clutch got so hot from all the slipping that the heat finally made it all the way up the clutch lever. We had a good laugh about that.
