all about trucks,
By
This review is from: Tough Trucks (Amazing Machines) (Hardcover)
Tough Trucks is a simple picture book with very few words per page. It tells about all sorts of trucks in the world. Each page has a picture of a truck with the job that it does. Each of the trucks are operated by cute little cartoon like animals that caught the attention of my 2 year old sister. This book is really neat for boys and girls for all ages.
The pictures are very colorful. In back in has a page where it explains tractors parts if you are not familiar with some of the words used in the book. I would recommend this book to children ages 4-7. Lots of kids like to read about truck and transportation

My 3-year-old loves this book and the others in the series. Above-average writing and great pictures. Perfect for the "all-boy".

Perfect For My 2yo!,

This review is from: Tough Trucks (Amazing Machines) (Paperback)
He got a copy of Tony Mitton's 'Terrific Trains' for his 2nd birthday - and he LOVED it so much, we decided to get him a copy of 'Tough Trucks' too.
Unsurprisingly, he loves it as well! It's a nice size book - 8x8inches - with bright, colorful pictures and not too many words per page. (Which is important, because little ones get bored if there are too many sentences each page!) The story rhymes and flows easily, so it's not too much of a mouthful to read, like some other rhyming stories. I have purchased more books from this series for friends children, too - and will buy more from the series for my son, too! Great books!!
