About This Book
Reach for this book when your toddler is in the peak of a vehicle obsession and needs a playful way to burn off energy before naptime. It is the perfect choice for the child who points out every passing car on the street and wants to know exactly what makes a race car different from a limo. Using bouncy, rhythmic verse and whimsical animal characters, Tony Mitton introduces various types of automobiles and their functions. The story fosters a sense of curiosity and wonder about the mechanical world while remaining lighthearted and funny. Parents will appreciate the vocabulary-building picture dictionary at the end, which helps transition the reading experience from a silly story into a focused learning moment. It is a gentle, joyful introduction to technical concepts for the preschool set.
