The pop up characters are great and the trucks fill the pages with fun color. Great rhymes for teaching language skills. There isn't much of a story to it, but really the story is us talking about what we see in the picture. Awesome for a transportation storytime or just for fun!
This book doesn’t actually flow, however, there is a central theme; trucks. Only the third to last and second to last page spreads flow. Every set of pages rhyme though. A firefighter, truck driver, and tow truck driver are women.
Loved by the boys. I did this as aread aloud for both 2-3 year olds and 4-5 year olds. Both age groups enjoyed it. It's short enough for the younger kids and the older ones love the great big pop-out trucks.
We bought this book today and my (2.5 year old) son and I have already read it about 15 times. Great rhymes for the prereader or beginning reader, and big pop-up trucks!
