Chatterbox: Go, Car, Go
Publisher: Pat-a-Cake
Babies and toddlers are sure to enjoy this vibrant touch-and-feel book from the Chatterbox Baby series, which introduces an assortment of things that go - from cars and trains to rockets and submarines, there are so many exciting vehicles to explore. The book ends with a trip to the park, where there are lots of familiar wheeled objects to identify, including a buggy, scooter and skateboard.
Each page contains rhyming text to introduce the type of vehicle, comments and questions to encourage language development and communication skills, and a list of things to spot within the detailed images. In addition, there are enticing textured areas for children to feel, such as the woven basket of a hot air balloon, or the smooth, shiny ferry windows.
Perfect for small hands to grasp, the thick cardboard pages and rounded corners will withstand plenty of rough treatment. Bright, jolly illustrations feature ethnically diverse characters and are full of detail, providing a wealth of visual interest which will help to foster a love of books from an early age.
