I don't think this book can be surpassed!

Oh my goodness, my son WILL NOT stop reading this book. Practically every day (and sometimes multiple times per day!) he shuffles through his book shelves and picks out -- you guess it-- this book. Every time. I would be excruciatingly sick of this book, but somehow even I still like it! It is such a great "boy" book and has tons and tons of great trucks, tractors, military vehicles, snow vehicles, make-believe vehicles (like a pickle car!) and the like. The story is quite cute as well, as it chronicles the family's looong and ridiculous journey to the beach for a picnic and then back home again. It is is actually quite long if you read the whole thing in one sitting. My kids LOVE finding Goldbug on each page and think maniac bug is hilarious. It's just a fabulous book, with several little story lines and so much to look at and absorb... your kids will probably not get tired of looking at it either!

Toddler Boys love it

This book was an old time favorite of my now 17 year old son. Several months ago, I took it out for my 2 year old nephew. He was hooked after the first viewing. He had several favorite pages and since he is at the age of loving all things transportation, he asked for it over and over again. I gave him my son's copy until I purchased a copy for him a few weeks ago. He calls it "his new book" and uses it every day. A friend and playmate got hooked on it while visiting, and I purchased a copy for him too. It turns out that it is now his favorite book too. The beauty of the book is that as they get older they can read the text and also search for "gold bug", but for now it is all about the silly cars and trucks and building vocabulary and memory.
I purchased R.Scarry books on the airport and firehouse as holiday gifts for my nephew, as well as a DVD from Busytown. I am sure he will enjoy those as well. I highly recommend the book for any youngster from around 2 years old on up to emerging readers. Great fun for them to look at or read alone, and a blast for them to share with friends, siblings, parents and other adults too. Richard Scarry continues to ROCK!!!

Great Family Reading!

I had this book when I was a little girl, and through the years it has seen a lot of little readers...and because of it isn't in the best shape. I bought a new copy so that I didn't have to worry about my childhood memory slowly falling apart even faster. My daughter is 2 and loves it. We read it almost every night and look for Goldbug on each page. Its a great read while we are getting ready for bed, and the book is a ton of fun! I would recommend it to any parent!






Kids and moving things

I got this was a young nephew. The pictures and variety are even more appealing and extensive than I anticipated. Fun view with lots of education about types of moving vehicles.

Hours of entertainment

I have bought this for a couple of nephews and they all love this book. They look at it over and over because there are so many little interesting things to find and see.

The Pig family takes a road trip to the beach for a picnic. The road is packed with hundreds of cars and trucks, vans and motorcycles, tractors and buses. The Pigs find chaos and adventure on the way to the beach and the opportunity to see vehicles they have never seen before. It's an exciting day!
