Richard
Scarry's Cars and Trucks and Things That Go
by Richard Scarry
Hardcover from Golden Books
Media Published: 1998-06-01
ISBN: 0307157857
The station wagon, the tow truck, the garbage truck and the bulldozer.
Every manner of machinery that moves is riotously depicted in this classic
favorite. As the pig family head to the beach for a picnic, they encounter
every vehicle known, from the forklift to the locomotive, and many vehicles
that are not as common, from the pumpkin car to the broom-o-cycle. Each
detailed spread provides tremendous opportunity to make up stories and
describe situations. Will Officer Flossy catch Dingo? Will Rollo Rabbit
catch his runaway steamroller? And with literally hundreds of things to
look at, youngsters will spend hours trying to find Goldbug on every page.
Although this book was around when many of today's parents were youngsters,
it has remained a steadfast must-have in every toddler's library. For starters,
it's a great vocabulary guide that names the many things that go (and some
that haven't a prayer of going, but are great fun to imagine anyway). It's
also teeming with detail-rich scenes and characters on every page, teaching
children the rewards of looking long and closely (such as finding the hidden
"Goldbug" in each spread). Along the way it entertains with the silly and
slapstick--everything from toothpaste and toothbrush cars to six fire department
vehicles that show up to extinguish a ladybug-size fire in a miniature
pink convertible. What's most amazing about this book, however, is its
longevity. When you purchase it for your fledgling talker, you should consider
it an investment. Even 11-, 12-, and 13-year-olds are known to pore over
the book nostalgically, cooing at Lowly Worm and eagerly tracking Officer
Flossie's book-long chase after that irresponsible, speedster driver in
a cowboy hat. (Ages 2 and older) --Gail Hudson |
