    5.0 out of 5 stars What every kid and grandpa needs

    I am a grandparent of an 8 and 10 year old grandsons. I use this book to teach them and refresh my memory on how to take care of thier bikes. It is costly to be taking bikes into the repair shops for things one can fix at home.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Gift for Cycling Kids!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2003
    "Kids' Easy Bike Care" is a wonderful, thoughtful book authored by Steve Cole. Mr. Cole addresses all of the fundamentals of bike ownership and maintenance, and hass thoughtfully geared the book for the inquisitive youngster (and his or her parents) who is about to begin bicycle riding for the first time. From hand signals to the "five step tune-up", Mr. Cole covers all the bases. Moreover, Mr. Cole responsibly emphasizes the importance of "Safety First!", which is a crucial message that needs to be communicated to every child who sets upon a bike. The text of the book, coupled with clear and informative diagrams and illustrations (drawn by Sarah Rakitin), is easy to understand for kids and adults alike.
    I believe that "Kids' Easy Bike Care" is a perfect gift (holiday, birthday, or otherwise) for bike-riding kids -- and I would especially encourage parents to purchase this book both for the novice bicyclists within their family, as well as for their own information. While I learned a lot from reading "Kids' Easy Bike Care" as an adult, I would have found this an invaluable resource as a child still learning to ride and take care of my bike. Great work, Mr. Cole!

    1.0 out of 5 stars Library Book

    My copy turned out to have previously been a library book. Book itself is great but had I known the source of what I can only assume is library theft and resale I wouldn't have purchased to discourage the practice.

    every school should have a well-used copy, and every child should have parents interested in them
    and their needs. working on a project with parent(s) makes for bonding.

    5.0 out of 5 stars SENIOR ADULTS BECAME KIDS AGAIN
    Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2003
    It is evident to me after reading this book, as a senior citizen who just bought a new bicycle, that the contents of this book are not just for kids. It was extremely helpful to both me and my husband who are SENIOR kids. This book would be a very appropriate purchase for anyone regardless of age who owns or is contemplating buying a bicycle. After reading this book, children of ALL AGES would gain the confidence to maintain and use their bicycle safely. This book should be available at all bicycle shops.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic!
    Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2003
    This book could also be titled "Bicycle Repair for Dummies" and is on a par with that classic book on auto repair. The easy-to-read content includes basic information that every bicyclist (young or old) should know, but that most don't. If you ride a bike, you need this book. Also, the illustrations are superb and greatly help the reader identify parts, discover problems, and perform certain repair and maintenance techniques.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and fun book for kids who love bicycles
    Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2003
    This is a creative book with delightful and practical illustrations. In an entertaining and instructive way, it teaches children responsibility to take care of their bikes. It also teaches important safety rules. Any child getting a new bicycle would benefit greatly by receiving a copy of this book. Even parents whose child owns a bicycle would benefit from reading this book. It is a great book for parents and kids to read together.
