Olaf and Venus are fun
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Another excellent book in Pratt's four-book series. Olaf and Venus get in their car and head to the beach, checking out the sights along the way. A bird, a porcupine, a plane, the sea are all part of the trip. Pratt's charming and simple artwork bring each item to life--a word on one side of the page is shown again on the facing page with a full-color illustration of Olaf and Venus having fun. A wonderful book that kept my 9-month-old son amused on a plane trip recently. Highly recommended.
Excellent for a three month old
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
My three month old was captivated by the bright colors throughout the story. The single word pages allowed me to make up the story as I read. I could talk for an extended amount of time if she was interested in a particular page. She would coo and ahh at the red car. An excellent book for an infant.
