Up, Down, All Around

ISBN 1575842734 - Board book bindings are the best, bar none. These pages are so thick and sturdy that they can stand up to almost any beating your child can dole out. There is no warning on the book itself, so it is probably minimal to non-existent for normal children (if there is such a thing!), but the small cardboard vehicles seem likely to be nibbled on and might, just at a stretch, pose a choking hazard. In the morning, the city comes to life with the noises of vehicles everywhere. They move about town, in and out, under and over. The vehicle shaped "puzzle" pieces fit into spots on each page and reinforce the opposites on the pages. Interactive books are always a good thing, especially for the youngest readers. Fisher-Price gets kids and proves it with their Puzzle PlayBooks. The illustrations by Peggy Tagel remind me of those felt-covered boards where you could create a scene, they're very brightly colored and most don't have too much in the way of overwhelming detail. The "tray" that holds the cars in the cover of the book doesn't slide out too easily, so your young reader won't find it easy to pull them out - and proceed to lose them or gnaw on them! Well worth picking up, but if you buy it used, make sure all the cars come with it. They are, after all, the fun part. - AnnaLovesBooks

fun way to teach a truck lover opposites!

My son loves this book! He got it around 1 yr, and at 2 still loves it! The car pieces fit into matching puzzle areas in the book. And the story teaches opposites, up..down, full...empty, ect. When the pieces are in place it makes a full picture and shows for example a construction site with the approprite truck pieces emptying and filling, going up and coming down a street, ect. My son also loves to just play with the cardboard truck pieces, pretending to drive them across the table, or other places. The yellow cardboard behind the pieces in the front cover slides in and out for storage. It's quite a snug pull tab though, my son is 2 and still can't pull it out himself...so he brings the book to me to get the trucks out. So you might need to help 'em a little bit. It's a very sturdy book also, my son has put it to the test the book and pieces are very thick cardboard.

A book to keep kids quiet

We loved this book to entertain our kids during church. It's been really nice to help them stay quiet. We also use the animal farm book that fisher price published.
