Synopsis

A new Beginner Book all about vehicles, featuring favorite things that go!

On a busy street in a busy town, cars and trucks go zipping 'round. Buses, trains—watch them go! How many vehicles do YOU know?

Buckle up and join Mommy and Bonnie on their drive as they encounter more than 20 types of vehicles! From garbage trucks and school buses to fire engines and police cars, working vehicles can be spotted all over town—and each plays an important role.

Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read! Launched by Dr. Seuss in 1957 with the publication of The Cat in the Hat, this beloved early reader series motivates children to read on their own by using simple words with illustrations that give clues to their meaning. Featuring a combination of kid appeal, supportive vocabulary, and bright, cheerful art, Beginner Books will encourage a love of reading in children ages 3–7.

Reviews

PreS-Gr 1-An animal mother and youngster head out for a day of driving around town in this beginning reader. On the busy streets they see a wide variety of vehicles, driven by an equally wide variety of animals. The animals, who range from lions to dinosaurs to skunks, drive everything from tow trucks to school buses. The pages are bursting with candy-colored illustrations; the text is less a story and more a collection of four-line rhymes about each vehicle, but that won't bother young fans of things that go. VERDICT While this will not stand out on the crowded beginning reader shelf, kids who love cars will be quite satisfied.-Heather Webb, Worthington Lib., OHα(c) Copyright 2011.
