highly recommended

The bestselling Amazing Machines series is now available in a charming box set. With ten mini editions inside, this collection is the perfect gift for any preschooler who loves machines. From airplanes to rockets to tractors, these critically acclaimed picture books are full of fun rhyming text, bright artwork, and wacky animal characters that will engage and delight young children as they learn about machines. Each book includes a helpful illustrated glossary of technical words to help build vocabulary.

My grandson is 2 1/2 and the other day he made me read

the fire engine book five times. I've only had the series a few weeks and we've been through at least half of them many times. Thumbs up.

Each book even has a vocabulary at the end and I learned a few words myself. (I didn't know that diggers have jacks to keep them immobile, for example, when they are doing certain jobs.)

My son loves these books

My wife and I are impressed at how much our son (less then 2) seems to love these books more than the other books he has. Great rhyming, stories, and illustrations. Highly recommended and a great buy as a pack.

Outstanding Children's Books

Both my daughter (2) and son (4) love this entire series. They're also among my favorites out of all the books they own. Beyond the fact that each book is written on a topic that fascinates kids (cars, planes, diggers, etc.) they are also incredibly intelligently written. And they're fun! They have a great rhyme and meter (which is great for children), but they also pack a lot of great facts and things you can discuss with your kids as you go through each page. Some children's books annoy me when they call things by made-up 'baby talk' names and don't use correct terms. This series doesn't do that. The final page goes back through some of the things the kids saw on the earlier pages and gives their names and a brief description of what the item does. My son loves to point at the items and then tell me what they do.

We're currently using Roaring Rockets as my son's bedtime book. I don't think I'll ever get sick of it. I would recommend every book by Tony Mitton does.

Fun times 10!

My two year-old son absolutely loves these; as soon as he finishes one, he wants to read another. They're fun to read, with a nice rhythm, and the vocabulary page is a plus. Maybe it's that I'm mainly familiar with baby books on transportation that have little more than captioned pictures, but I really enjoy that these books have real content to them, even as short as they are. I'd recommend them without hesitation for any toddler, truck-obsessed or not.
