4.0 out of 5 stars Not a story book. It's a simple book of opposites., October 6, 2006

I ordered this book based on Amazon's description that is is a "complete retelling of Disney presentation of a Pixar film latest computer-animated film, Cars." It is definitely NOT that. Instead, it's a simple book of opposites, using pictures from the movie. Here are some examples from the book: "Dirty car. Clean car. Nice car. Mean car. Drive fast, fast, fast. Drive nice and slow." If you are looking for a book of opposites for a child who loves the movie 'Cars', then this book is for you. If you are looking for a book that tells the story, this isn't the one you want to buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars My 2 1/2 year old's favorite book, July 25, 2007

This review is from: Old, New, Red, Blue! (Step into Reading) (Cars movie tie in) (Paperback)

We don't let him watch TV/movies, and I've never seen "Cars" either - but we love this book just the same. It's has simple rhymes which are fun for him and easy to memorize for me. We even recite the words in the car without the book around. The book has held up reasonably well given all the use it gets and that it's a paperback.

This review is from: Old, New, Red, Blue! (Step into Reading) (Cars movie tie in) (Paperback)

My son picks out books for me to read before he goes to sleep, he always picks this as one of them.

He knows each of the car names and can "read" what each page says. I put "read" in quotes because he has each sentence memorized. Regardless, I'm impressed! So if I point at the words "Old Car" he'll say it, but when I point to the car, he'll say "Mater"

The pictures are renderings vs illustrations, so they'll look just like the characters in the movie.
