Cars and Trucks and Things That Go (Giant Little Golden Book) Review
User Submitted Cars and Trucks and Things That Go (Giant Little Golden Book) ReviewsJune 16, 2008 Family favorite Both our sons loved this book . I bought this for our grandson, who, I am sure, will have as much fun looking for Goldbug as his dad did some 30 years ago. May 30, 2008 My grandson's new favorite I purchased this for a grandson's 2nd birthday and he just loves it. He has it virtually memorized by now but it is still his first choice at bedtime. May 21, 2008 Eventually absorbing for my toddler I bought this book with Scarry's A Day at the Airport book to help entertain my 23 month old during a cross country flight. My son wasn't as absorbed in Cars and Trucks as I'd hoped he be during the flight but in the weeks since he has been asking for the "Trucks" book every day. We narrate some of the pictures but he also spends some time looking at book every day on his own, paging through the book and absorbed in the illustrations (and commenting on the pictures occasionally, or at least as much as a near 2 year old can). We have other books with photos of vehicles which also interest him but this book so far seems to have more lasting appeal. I think it's the combination of the sheer volume and variety of the vehicles, interesting animals driving them, and just lots going on on each page. April 6, 2008 Delightful trip down memory lane I recall reading this book to my younger sister many years ago. I recently purchased this for a 6 year old. He squealed with delight. It is his favorite R S book. Richard Scarry books are classics - great for young & old. Delightful pictures & so fun to look at! March 21, 2008 Wonderful picture book Our 19 month old grandson loves Cars, Trucks and Things That Go, so this book is perfect for him. It is not too old for him. He looks and looks at the pictures on the pages and says the name of the object over and over. He has learned many new words from having this book. February 28, 2008 Things that go The Pig family takes a road trip. On their way to the beach for a picnic, they encounter cars and trucks, vans and motorcycles, tractors and buses. What an exciting day! My kids delighted in finding Goldbug. A very fun book for children who like cars. February 24, 2008 A Classic for Toddlers and Prereaders After wearing out a couple of these books 30 years ago with our own kids, we still have fun giving copies to new parents so that their kids can enjoy the search for Gold Bug with them--over and over again. The detailed illustrations keep kids' attention for hours, and the fanciful vehicles and their drivers are great for feeding little imaginations. There is a whole host of R. Scarry books, but this is the one we like the most. February 18, 2008 Great Book for Kids! I remember this book from when I was a kid. Now my two year old has it and he loves looking at the great illustrations and learning new words. He even insist it goes to bed with him every night. A very good book for 2-year old boys who are curious about "things that go". A must have! February 8, 2008 Just awesome! I buy a LOT of books for my son because he loves to be read to and this book is absolutely one of his top 5 favorites! At 60+ pages it is long, but my (almost) 2-yr-old will sit on my lap for 30+ pages at a time, sometimes the entire book. I am just amazed at how much this book entertains him. There is so much going on with each page that even I continue to notice things I didn't previously. He loves looking for "Goldbug" on each page. Whenever we find "Goldbug" first we tell him to look for the purple car - so he has fun and also learns colors. As a mom, I love the illustrations and how it teaches my son about boats, airplanes, trains, construction equipment, snow, the farm, beach, etc. If anything were to happen to this book I would definitely go buy another one. As a result of my son enjoying this book so much we already have addded, and are going to continue to add, Richard Scarry books to his collection. Not that this will work for you, but my husband and I have discovered that when our son is overtired reading him this book settles him down everytime! January 29, 2008 116 Five Star Reviews (So Far!) Say It ALL! The odds are you read this book yourself when you were young, perhaps passing it on to younger siblings or cousins. Cars and Trucks and Things That Go by Richard Scarry will never, ever go out of style. It is so amazingly filled with action and color, it keeps young readers enthralled over and over again. If you pick it up again as an adult, you'll be caught right back up into its excitement! Beautiful! Delightful! Wonderful! Silly! Educational! Entertaining! Cars and Trucks and Things That Go just has it all. For more Cars and Trucks and Things That Go (Giant Little Golden Book) reviews click here.
