Can You Choo Choo?

ISBN 0439394856 - Books for very young, budding readers abound but Can You Choo Choo? just has something a little special. The board book binding you might expect for toddlers isn't it, because this is an oversized hardcover with paper pages just like other hardcovers. It isn't even the sounds, which have all been featured endlessly in other books too. I think, if I have to guess, that what this book has is author and illustrator David Wojtowycz. Illustrations in bright colors look more like felt cut-outs pasted onto a flat background, giving them a unique, attractive look. Each page features a vehicle and the sound it makes and near or in each vehicle is an animal (I find it funny that there's a pig on the police car page but that'll go over the heads of toddlers). Kids will love it and it's a super-fast read for those "hurry up and get in bed" nights.

Wahoo! We choo choo!

My 21 month old son LOVES this book. It's always the one he choses to read. He loves to point to all the vehicles and name them. The colors, page layouts and simple sentences are perfect! I do wish the fire truck looked more like a fire truck, but I love the big airplace and the boat and the cars. This is a big hit at our house!

I love David Wojtowycz!!!

Whether he's the author, illustrator or both, this guy rocks!!! This book is perfect for any little guy or gal. Big, bright illustrations, simple, yet engaging text, an all-around winner! We are going to use the adorable illustrations from this book to paint a mural in my 2 year old son's room. We had previously decorated his nursery with illustrations from a different, but equally adored, Wojtowycz-illustrated book, Rumble in the Jungle. We are even planning so far ahead for a 2nd child to have his/her nursery decorated in a Commotion in the Ocean theme.But enough about me, buy this book, you won't regret it.
