My son loves this book. It always bothers me that 4/5 drivers are male and the one female driver asks "where is my bag?" The bag is, hilariously, under her seat. The male drivers all ask the reader to find tools or the gas tank, which are hidden under flaps. Anyway, he loves it.
I bought this for our 18 mth old grandbaby. The book was a hit with him. It is colorful and each page has several boxes to open. As long as he doesn't pull the tabs off, it will be a book he can have someone read to him and to teach him things along the way. I bought hm several small trucks to go with his book. In the book there is a "petting zoo" truck, a "farm truck" etc with lots of flaps everywhere.He enjoyed it more then I thought he would. It is a board book so it is sturdy. He can throw it around and even taste it.(he tastes everything he sees right now.) Like I said, if he doesn't tear the flaps off, he will be using it for a long time. I would recommend "What's In my Truck" to any parent or grandparent with little boys.
Excellent book for children!!! The book has prompting questions to go with the flaps. Questions like "How Many...." "What color..." "Can you find the....". My son loves to go through all the questions. It is his #1 book due the fun and mine due to the learning it prompts.
This is the second purchase I have made of this same book. My grandson literally wore out the first one. No, he did not tear it or treat it rough. We just read it at least a dozen times a day! There are multiple flaps on each page.which holds interest.
I took this book as a gift for my 17 month old granddaughter. She was intrigued by it, but the doors inside it are very hard for little fingers to open - definitely requires some help. That said, it seems well made to withstand repeated door openings. I think that it will become more interesting as she gets a little older. It has lots of things to look for inside the various trucks and has has items that require counting and color recognition - all good skills for early learners.
I just purchased 2 new copies of this great book. It is my favorite book for toddlers. I'm currently a nanny for two different families, and this book is a hit with a 15 month old and also a 21 month old. The pictures are bright and colorful, and each page has a theme. The flaps are really sturdy which is so important. I suggest having an adult open each flap first and carefully creating the crease before giving it to a child. Endless fun.
My 2.5 year old son is obsessed with all things that go. This is one of his favorite books. We have a few 'flap' books and some of them, in my opinion, have too many flaps for his age. This one has the perfect amount and is well illustrated. He likes to go through it himself as well as have mom or dad sit with him. He's happy and I'm happy. Highly recommend.
My 18 month old daughter has loved this book since she was a little over a year old. She particularly loves identifying the drivers in the flaps, and then spotting trucks and drivers everywhere we go. The flaps are very sturdy and have really held up well to wear and tear and it is a great book to keep in the car and hand to her in her car seat. It keeps her entertained for quite awhile. Each page is a different themed truck delivering objects (i.e. animals to the pet store, food to the grocery store, prizes and rides to a carnival). As one of the other reviewers noted, it would be nice if the sole female driver didn't ask kids to find her purse rather than tools or the gas tank, but frankly, my daughter likes purses quite a bit too so it works for her and at least there is a female driver too.
