About the author

Richard Scarry is one of the world's best-loved children's authors EVER! Generations of children all over the world have grown up spending hours poring over his books filled with all the colorful details of their daily lives. No other illustrator has shown such a lively interest in the words and concepts of early childhood. For himself, whenever he was asked how old he was, Scarry would always put up one hand and laugh, saying, "five!"
In his extraordinary career, Richard Scarry illustrated over 150 books, many of which have never been out of print. His books have sold over 100 million copies around the world, and are currently published in over twenty languages. Richard Scarry, Jr., also an illustrator, carries on his father's work today under the name of Huck Scarry. He was posthumously awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award from The Society of Illustrators in 2012.

A nivel de material es grandioso, las hojas son gruesas y de muy buena calidad, las ilustraciones son nítidas y muy coloridas.
En fin, es maravilloso en todo sentido. No sólo a los niños les gustará, a cualquier persona que disfrute de los libros y de ilustraciones, como yo, lo amará.

There isn't much of a story to this book, and what story there is won't win any literary prizes, but on reflection I realise now that this is probably one of our most picked up books. We've spent literally hours over the course of the last 5 years just looking at the pages together, talking about the things that are going on, what the vehicles look like, who is driving them, what they might be used for etc etc and as my son has aged the things we see on each page has changed and so has our conversation about it—at 2 years old we read the story and talked about the silly cars but today I noticed the conversation has moved more towards why? and how? and my son being able to read the passages of text himself. Most of the books he had at 2 he has long since outgrown but not this one. I class this as one of those books we will keep as a memento of my sons early years, the one we spent hours flipping through the pages of peacefully connecting with each other.
If you're considering buying it, I would urge you to give it a go. When you get it, don't be put off by the Americanisms, and slightly out of date context. just look through it together, and let the conversation unfold. I promise you will still be doing the same several years later.
Highly recommended.
