My First Book of Things that go (Hardcover)

Vehicles of every sort fill these 80 hardcover pages, from cars and trains to diggers, boats, aircraft and the machines that work on building sites. Each one is named, pictured and briefly described. Books about things that move earn their keep with small children because the subject is already familiar from the street and the sky. Here the familiar is extended: alongside the bus and the bicycle sit cranes, tractors, ferries and helicopters, with a line or two explaining what each one does and where it is used. Naming vocabulary builds quickly this way, and the pictures give a listener something to point at. A closer look: • 80 pages covering road, rail, water and air vehicles • Clear labelling that builds naming vocabulary • Short descriptions of what each machine is for • Hardcover format for readers aged five to ten A natural pick for vehicle-obsessed children and early years classrooms, published by Shree Book Mumbai and stocked at Boipoka.
