Great if your child loves aircrafts
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
My daughter absolutely loves airplanes, blimps and anything in the sky. This book is simple and has a lot of cute touches in the illustrations. I don't think it's quite as good as I Love Trains, which reads more lyrically. This book also strays into spacecraft at the end, which is fun but not as "on topic" as the train book was. As for whether the child in the book has two mommies, don't be ridiculous. My daughter, who is not yet three years old, saw the Mom on the space station, then at home on the next page and said "the Mommy is home from work!" She also points out that on the final page with Mom & child, there is an airplane flying past with a male pilot. "That's the Daddy!"
For Imaginative Kids who love air travel
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
The reviewer who suggests that this book is about a boy with two moms (not that there's anything wrong with that!) is just plain silly. This book is about a boy who loves all kinds of air transportation, including (but not limited to) planes: sea planes, hot air balloons, blimps, jets, and space shuttles. He *imagines* that he is in the cockpit of a jet; he *imagines* he is traveling in a space shuttle; he *imagines* that his mom might be in a space station. The text is simple but appealing for younger kids, and there is some more factual information on the endpapers. My son and I love this book as well as the whole "I Love" series. But if a child doesn't know how to use his/her imagination, then I suppose this book (and many others) might be too confusing!
