I've checked out every single one of the books in this series from the library. I wanted to buy a few of these books, but there's so many repeat textures, I wanted some with good variety. I ended up buying this one and 2 others (That's not my Penguin and That's not my Dinosaur). There are a few repeats, but I don't really mind. I also almost bought That's not my Monkey.That's not my Tractor has these textures: engine too bumpy, trailer too rough, funnel too smooth, wheels too squashy, seat too scratchy, and headlights so shiny. The shiny headlights look like yellow glitter, so they are definitely shiny.These books are super cute and very thick and durable. I've also looked at the touch and feel books by D.K. publishing (Farm, Wild Animals, Baby Animals) and they are definitely not as sturdy as these books. And I love the drawings and the that's not my... concept better too. Great books!!
I purchased this and two other "That's Not My..." board books in Australia recently for my 1 year old. These books were well worth the price as they quickly became his favorite night time reading. He can easily turn the pages and touch and feel the lion's ears, tail or teeth. He especially enjoys scratching the lions paws. The "That's not my lion ..." line is just the level of repetition that he requires. I would definitely recommend these books and plan to purchase the rest of the series.
This book has been a hit from the start with my 6 months old baby -maybe a little too much: at the very first reading, she got so excited at the last page that she managed to pull the mane of the lion right off the book! So parents, if your baby has good "grabbing" skills, beware! Generally though, this board book is sturdy, colorful, great to learn about textures, and has thick pages that are easy to turn with baby hands. We go back to this book often. My now 9 months old is still too young to pay attention to the little mouse on each page, but I expect it will be a nice addition later to have her find it.I gave it only 4 stars due to the page that was destroyed so easily, and also there is one page that I don't like that much ("shiny teeth" -unappealing drawing, and shiny is not easy considering the book is glossy). I also bought "That's not my monkey" and I like it more (so does my baby).Overall, I highly recommend books in this series.
We got my daughter one of these books (the Lion one), and she loved it so much that I went back to the book store and got the two others in the series they had (doll and dinosaur). Months later these are still her favorite books (she is now 10 months old). I am buying the rest of the set now. These books will be what I get for baby gifts from now on.
A couple at church has a baby girl recently. The new daddy had read this book again and again to his niece when she was very small and had memorized the book. When they were expecting their first baby I couldn't resist finding the book for him. He loved it!
My son LOVES this line of books; but this one fell short for him!"That's Not My Monster" is his absolute favorite, and he likes "That's Not My Dragon" the 2nd. I bought That's Not My Pony, That's Not My Monkey and That's Not My Lion recently. He enjoys the monkey one, but the other 2 he doesn't care much for. I couldn't say why, I think textures are really the same book to book, so it must be the pictures. I highly recommend these books though.
My daughter has loved this book (and several others in the series) since she was about 6 months old. She's getting less interested now at 13-months, but it's still a favorite.
Here is a wonderful children's board book for both boys and girls, ages one to four. Starting off with an attractive cover and a shiny engine, the author encourages children to touch. Over the next ten pages a mouse looks at different tractors, each with a part that you are inspired to touch.The pictures are in bold primary colors with other little creatures that the adult can point out to the child. This is one of many in a series of 'That's Not My.....' board books. Both stimulating yet simple it is a nice addition to your little one's library.
