Priceless Joy
Derived From Web , Apr 20, 2022
This was one of the priciest books I bought thus far for my two year old, but SO WORTH IT! I find it interesting and fun to read myself! His vehicular heart bursts for all things little and this is just hands down the best book that portrays them. I bought it for him to look at after a surgery, and it literally brightened his little face and his mood. You know that is priceless. Get this book for your child and watch them explore the moving pieces and learn about vehicles from other countries while also watching their love for books develop before your eyes. I do recommend you watch moving pieces with the curious little pieces, as some of ours have already succumbed to my child. I expected that though, and if you keep the pieces, some are easily fixable with tape. edited 2718 to say he is now 5 and still reaches for this book just about every night. Im so pleased with this purchase, as it brings him so much joy!

Such a fun interactive book!
Derived From Web , Apr 20, 2022
Fantastic book . The book is filled with tabs to hold, wheels to turn and flaps to lift off and on and on every page. The book covers all kinds of vehicles... RV's, construction vehicles, passenger vehicles, boats, planes, spaceships and so much more. My three year old grandson asks for it to interact with everything all the time and loves being able to read on every page. Heck... I love working with vehicles too! It is colorful, with sturdy stock paper and Given that the book has been used to rip off doors on buses and RV's, to turn wheels and cement mixer barrels, to move levers, to launch a spaceship into the sky,... nothing has ripped after many months. I did read the book first and opened all the moveable objects on each page so we could all work together when we read the book, and I knew how to guide my grandson when he did it himself. I have highly recommended this book for the little ones in your life!

Great for five or older
Derived From Web , Apr 20, 2022
New book for 5 years and over, who loves cars. It had a 4 year old and a three year old on Grandpa's lap for a solid 20 minutes. There are many flaps to see inner workings, products, people and four or five other interesting things to see, which unfortunately our four-year old had seized hold of the book and ripped off parts to two of the harder to manage manipulators. I felt bad '', as I had meant to make sure that it did not happen, but let it go as it is just a book, but not even on the first day before mother and father had even seen it. I wished I had held it back another year.

I saw the beautiful illustrations and tossed it into my cart
Derived From Web , Apr 20, 2022
I purchased this book for our two-year-old son, who is fascinated by vehicles. It was a quick-in-the-minute purchase in advance of his birthday. I tossed the gorgeous illustrations and saw it in my cart. It was with great delight that I learned it was a pop-up book, and my delight was eclipsed by that of our toddler. The lavish detail and superlative visual design and delightful illustrations make this book a wonderful gift for children like mine. It offers countless readings to find out and explore all the details. Just a beautiful book, hands down.

This book has been read over and over again and enjoyed by a little boy who loves cars, trucks, airplanes and anything with wheels! It is a small book with a sturdy flap to lift on most pages.

Fun book...but not toddler proof!
Derived From Web , Apr 20, 2022
Neat Book, very creative design, with a lot of vehicles on every page. But we quickly found out that a moving toddler can easily break, bend, or tear the tabs unless you monitor them.

Interactive fun
Derived From Web , Feb 3, 2022
If your child likes things that go, they will LOVE this book. Even I enjoy lifting all the little flaps and discovering how things move on each page. Warning though my son received this in Prek and loved it dearly, but destroyed it mostly. It is probably best for kindergarten or older children, just because the dredging and rocketship and other pages are delicate.

Great idea but could use more substance
Derived From Web , Apr 19, 2021
My son is obsessed with machines and construction and this book looked awesome! The moving pieces are very delicate and I waited until he was 4 to give it to him. The first day one of the moving parts ripped, and he was so gentle. The pieces are just very thin and not very well made. While the pages are fun to move the pieces around, there is no storyline. It lists the name of the machine. I think that a story or explanation of what is happening would make the book more interesting. My child was more interested in Richard Scarry's machine book and goes to choose that one over this one every single time. I think that because there is no story, no interesting facts included, only some moving parts, he passes on this book, as it only holds his attention for a few minutes.
