Easy Street

Picture books featuring trucks are a dime a dozen, but this one's a standout. The 3-D illustrations are great, the language and rhyme scheme work, and this is the only book that I've seen that clearly tells how a road gets paved in a completely entertaining way. Bravo!

38 months - Sometimes simple is just right for O. The text is simple yet rhyming to describe the process of paving a new street. Something we are very familiar with after having both of our streets replaced this spring (Ack the noise!!! Not good for a kid who is sound sensitive). Great clay figures and vehicles. This would be a fabulous book for a boy obsessed with vehicles.

Both of my sons have LOVED this book around age two. The somewhat repetitive text, the rhyming cadence and the cute clay illustrations all make it a winner. Both would walk around, repeating certain lines - the words are catchy like a song! Really cute.

Ages 2-5. A street is built from surveying the road to the final coat of tar. Children will investigate the process of building a road and all the machines used to complete it. Bright, colorful illustrations in the vein od Bob the Builder will draw children in.

It talks about the replacing of the roads and the different trucks and the pictures also a big help. This is a good book for children who loves playing with trucks. Age 2-5
