Day 8: Cars and Trucks and Things That Go
This might be my son's favorite book of all time. He has loved it so much, in fact, that we are actually on our second copy. The first one was given to us as a hand-me-down and was in near-perfect condition, but the poor book was soon loved to shreds. Literally. Even mass amounts of heavy duty clear packing tape couldn't save it. Granted, we probably shouldn't have given my son a non-board book when he was still only one, but he was so obsessed with cars and trucks that we couldn't resist reading it to him. Needless to say, it was an instant hit. It features drawings of every kind of vehicle you could possibly imagine and then some (would you rather drive a carrot car or a banana mobile?) and a rather silly story line about the Pig family's day trip to the beach. It's long -- almost 70 pages -- but jam-packed with vehicular delight. We love following that naughty Dingo Dog, too. If you have a child in your life who is like mine and is obsessed with all things wheeled, this is bound to be a favorite. Don't forget to find Goldbug on every page!
