This is a great addition if your little one loves this series, and the flaps are great entertainment for them.Save yourself time and engage your students with these Little Blue Truck activities.
So, would I recommend this book? Yes, as long as you can get past the "Yoo-hoo" throughout the book. However, I love how Emmett can learn the names of all the baby animals. I guess the only thing is the storyline is similar to Little Blue Truck's Halloween, where there isn't much going on compared to the other books in the series. He has had this book for over a month now, and it has not been damaged yet, so I think that is a good sign. I think the flaps in this book are much better than the ones in Little Blue Truck's Halloween. He really loves the story and opening the flaps. There are a couple of times where you can count the number of baby animals which is nice for educational purposes.Įmmett got Little Blue Truck's Springtime in his Easter basket. Essentially, that is the entire storyline. Then, you lift the flap and see the baby animals. Along the way, they see their animal friends, like the cow and duck. That, or I just know how to read it out loud better.īlue is taking a drive with his friend, Toad. When I first read this book, I was like, "What in the world did I just buy for my son?" Now, I've read it so much that I kind of like it. "Yoo-hoo!" Yeah, I'm not sure why it says that throughout Little Blue Truck's Springtime. (The flaps are large and pretty sturdy so I expect the book to hold up pretty well to all the attention he's giving it.) (Lots of spring time books assume the babies are always with their mother.) In our case he decided the Daddy pig was inside the barn and then he was happy. This kind of thing matters to little kids, so I'm happy that they made the story work for any parent figure. On the page where it talks about "Mother pig", my grandson wanted to know where the Daddy pig was. The rest of the time the story just says "horse" or "rabbit". My grandsons live with my son, their father, and the book only once refers to the parent animal as mother. In addition, each baby animal is referred to by its correct name, so kids get used to hearing those terms. Also, alongside the main story there are frogs who make crowns of the different colored flowers on each page and hitch a ride on the truck. The illustrations are beautiful, very colorful and full of little details like a mouse hiding in the barn.
Each page has a different kind of animal, with their baby animals under the flap. I like that each book in the series is a little different - this one is an open-the-flap book. We've been reading it multiple times every day since then and he takes it to bed with him at night. My 3 year old grandson loves these books, so of course I had to buy him this one for Easter.
