This book has simple black and white drawings, with a short paragraph with information about each one. Most are vehicles, but there are some that aren’t, like a chainsaw, umbrella and gramophone. Each page has perforations so it can be removed from the book.
I’m liking
It’s great having a book like this with NZ language and machines. There are no references to lorries or garbage trucks, it’s all vocal that your child will be familiar with. It’s nice having some information specific to NZ cities, such as the description of when Auckland’s train system was electrified.
Things that made me go hmmmm
The drawings are all very simple, I thought it would be nice to have some that showed more about how the machine worked.
The conclusion
A great colouring book for kids who also want to learn about machines as they read it.
