Slide and Find - Trucks (Slide and Find) Review
For ages 2 and up Interactive book Help develop learning skills Sturdy doors to slide Hidden surprises and questions encourage learning User Submitted Slide and Find - Trucks (Slide and Find) ReviewsNovember 14, 2008 My son loves it! My son loves this book. He's 1 1/2 years old and trucks are his favorite things. The pictures are bright. The book is sturdy. Good, solid product. Would definitely purchase again! August 18, 2008 Misleading Encarta Dictionary defines truck as "large commercial freight transport vehicle" or alternatively "a large vehicle for transporting goods by road". On the back cover of this Bright Baby book the publisher pledges "This book will increase your child's vocabulary by associating words with beautiful pictures". So what's the problem? On the front cover we see a bright yellow mini loader - interesting, but definitely not a truck. The book also wrongly identifies tractors, diggers, scrapers, bulldozers, grass cutters, and excavators as trucks. All are fun to look at heavy equipment, but none are trucks. Books purporting to be educationally valuable should be factually correct. Therefore the most I can give it is two stars. It would be one except that my nephew's one year old Jacob just can't get enough of it, notwithstanding the inaccuracies. July 8, 2008 Great for my little truck lover My 18 month old is talking up a storm and LOVES trucks. He insists on reading this book over and over. The pictures are clear and he can now name EVERY truck in the book although he has some trouble with "car transporter". The word is a bit long for a kiddie book but he's certainly up for the challenge. I would recommend this book for any truck lover or word enthusiast. It is not a story book, just pictures and words. Some other vehicles include "mini loader", "digger", "ambulance", "fuel truck", "cement mixer", "fire engine". May 25, 2008 great for girls too! my DAUGHTER loves things that go - trucks, buses, cars...we both have learned lots from this book -- there are so many types of trucks and things that go that I did not the names to and many common things we see every day like the mail truck or fire truck. April 12, 2008 Great book! We have all 4 books in this series and we love them all! Great pictures and words for my little two year old. April 5, 2008 My son loves this book! Great pics!! The only con--if any, I think is that maybe the words could be a little more general. (i.e just "firetruck" or "tractor" instead of the formal full name.) But overall this book is awesome! Because of this book, one of my son's first words was "mail truck!" :) We love it! March 23, 2008 My son loves this book We got this book for our truck-obsessed son when he was 18-months old and 6 months later it's still one of his favorites. The nice colorful pictures will surely grab the attention of any young truck lover January 14, 2008 Good Book for 1 year old My 13 months old has others in this collection of books and he loves them all. He can easily turn the pages while I read and talk about the pictures or he just sits and looks at it himself. Highly recommend. April 14, 2007 Unlike most books with moving parts, Slide and Find Trucks is extremely durable Slide and Find Trucks is an easy reader board book for very young children with an interactive twist - every other page has four sliding windows over the pictures of trucks that cover images with related words or concepts. For example, the sliding windows on the first page cover (or uncover) a red garbage truck with the word "red", a blue giant excavator with the word "blue", a green delivery truck with the word "green", and a yellow backhoe loader with the word "yellow". Unlike most books with moving parts, Slide and Find Trucks is extremely durable, and sure to provide educational fun for the littlest inquisitive minds. January 5, 2007 We Love Priddy Books All his books are great! Pictures, colors, totally engaging and enticing to my 1 yr old. Hooray!
