Reviews
PreS—How fast does a car go? It zooms! In this board book, half a dozen vehicles are depicted moving in their unique ways, with the method and speed of each described in basic terms, such as "A wagon rolls on the sidewalk." The spirit of adventure, happily portrayed on the faces of each individual, is designed to show the joy of travel. This fun book is sure to encourage energetic toddlers to show how fast they can go! Riggs's introductory title offers value in its ability to enrich vocabulary for babies and toddlers in a fun and easy way. The illustrations, comprised of a palette of mauve, taupe, orange, blue, and cream with bold black outlines, are simple but with enough action to create additional dialogue with a child. On each spread, a different vehicle is energetically portrayed, with line art giving a sense of movement. Slower modes of transportation have curly lines trailing behind, while faster vehicles have straight lines, except for the rocket, which has a blast of energy propelling it into a starry realm. Recommended as an additional board book purchase.—Gaye Hinchliff, King County Library System, WA
