Amazing Pop-up Trucks by Robert Crowther - review

Dylan loved the pop-up trucks in this book. Trucks and cars are his favourite things so it's a great book for him! He tries to move the pop-up trucks up and down, thinking they are toy trucks, so he has managed to slightly tear some from pulling them around, but they are still intact! The pop-ups are very detailed and well made, so they look real. Dylan loves opening the pages to open the pop-ups and says "Wow!" every time. The writing in the book is a little old for him – it talks about when trucks were made, what they do and how much they weigh – so he didn't really understand this. But he sits there whilst I read it as he has the pop-ups and pictures to look at. Dylan also loved the flaps in the book, there are little flap-ups on every page with pictures underneath and writing on them. He loves opening them and looking at the pictures underneath. I do think the book is aimed at older children as the writing was complex but Dylan loved the pictures so much and was more then happy making truck sounds whilst I read it to him.
