FROM THE PUBLISHER Children love vehicles! In this book, kids will learn about lots of things that go: trains and planes, cars and boats, motorcycles, rocket ships, and more. This jumbo book is chock-full of wonderful, interactive elements that teach through play! FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly My First Jumbo Letters: Learning Fun for Little Ones, illus. by James Diaz and Melanie Gerth, offers the alphabet in a paper-over-board format with flaps to lift, textures to touch, pull-tabs and pop-ups. Each page bursts with illustrations from an apple and armadillo to a yak and yo-yo, and readers can unfold a fan or rub an orangutan's hairy belly. In the last spread a camera-toting zebra kid pops up, while all around him (and in his pocket) are "photos" of animals from A to Z. Part of the same series, Things That Go, illus. by James Diaz, Gerth and Francesca Diaz offers similar interaction but with a cherry picker, submarine and space shuttle, among other modes of transport.
