One of my favourites! A great interactive book for young children to learn and sing along too! Great for talking about and exploring the world around them through using the pictures in the book.

This story is about various types of transport and what happens around them. The book involves flaps, which introduces a different type of transport on the corresponding page.

From my experience, this book worked well with Nursery aged children. It was a very interactive book, which allowed the children to share their experiences of the individual types of transport. This was great in encouraging the children's use of language. They also loved imitating the sounds of the different modes of transport. Due to the children's enthusiasm relating to this book, i rate it a 5 out of 5. I believe this book would also be good to use in KS1 as it could be incorporated into Geography by discussing different types of transport.
