Aanrader voor jonge autofans. Zeer interessant en massa's stevige flapjes. Toont hoe een auto er vanbinnen uitziet en werkt, hoe die wordt gefabriceerd, verschillende soorten, evolutie doorheen de eeuw, ... Kleurrijk en uitnodigend.
A beautiful book that explains cars to pre schoolers It has different sections that teach how they’re made, how they run, how they’re fixed, about race cars, the history of cars, and the scrapyard. Lots of flaps that make it interactive. My 3 year old thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a long read and he actually sat through it. He also seemed to have understood a lot of it, if not all. I’m expecting he’ll be bringing this one out a lot often than I would like. 😂
