Reach for this book when your toddler is beginning to show interest in the world outside their front door or when they are obsessed with anything that has wheels. It is a perfect selection for those 'I can do it' moments where a child is finding pride in their own physical abilities and growing independence. Through the simple lens of a man named Tom, the story captures the routine and rhythm of a morning commute, specifically the pride of ownership and the joy of movement. The bright, high-contrast illustrations and repetitive, rhythmic text make it a calming yet engaging read for toddlers and preschoolers. It celebrates the simple pleasure of a bike ride while introducing basic mechanical parts like wheels and pedals. It is a wonderful tool for building vocabulary and validating a child's excitement about the busy, moving world around them.
