Great book for kids who like cars
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I bought this book for my 4 year old Grandson. I had previously gotten him the Uncover the Human Body book which he loved so much that he carried it around with him all the time and even took it to bed. He did the same with this one. All of the Uncover books are really great learning tools. As you turn each page another system of the car is revealed and explained on that page. Some of the information is a bit too complicated for a 4 year old but much of it isn't and as he matures he will be able to understand more and more. The book does have to be handled with care because the little plastic parts are suspended in the opening of each page with little plastic straps, but teaching him to take good care of it is another good learning experience.
It's a HIT in our house!

I ordered this for my 5 year old son, who is a car fanatic. From the minute he peeked in the box to the present day, he LOVES this book. He even takes it to bed and leaves it on his nightstand while he sleeps. Some of the information in the factoids are a bit over his head right now, but the book does a wonderful job detailing the various parts inside and out of the racecar. In reference to the quality of the book and the model inside, I agree it's not the highest quality (hence, the 4 stars instead of 5). The car inside could crush easily if the book is smooshed, and the binding is slightly flimsy. Just this morning our toddler got ahold of it and pulled the tires off (easy enough to glue back in, though). But then again, the book is not intended for toddlers or children under the age of 3. The tiny parts are delicate, and need to be handled with care to avoid damage. Perhaps the previous reviewer was mistaken about the content of the book when she ordered it. I don't find the quality to be as bad as was described. It's an awesome choice for an older child who loves cars!
