Product Description
Illustrated in full color.Jam-packed with loads of flaps to "lift, look, and learn" from, this book will have young children searching for engines painted blue, green, or red, counting from 1 to 10, and learning the alphabet.

Let's get one thing straight right off the bat. Children love books with flaps. They can't get enough of them. And this book has many, many flaps--over 60, in fact. Something else: children are crazy about Thomas the tank engine. Translation? Very young readers will happily spend a lot of time lifting and learning with this big, bright, colorful board book. Early learning concepts are reinforced on each page, as readers are encouraged to explore their knowledge of colors, numbers, sizes, everyday objects, and the alphabet. Thomas the tank engine travels through the pages, starting out early in the morning in the train shed and moving through the stations, dropping off parcels and passengers, and finally ending up in the freight yard with car after car full of important objects to be delivered, such as milk, doors, a piano, a kangaroo, and xylophones. Children should be allowed to roam freely over the pages of this book, making up their own stories related to the pictures they discover under the flaps. (Ages 2 and older) --Emilie Coulter

4 out of 5 stars Good sturdy Tab Book   February 20, 2008
The tabs are sturdy on this book and there are lots of them! The only draw back is that on some of them the little punch out that lets you get your finger get under the tab to lift it, was still in place. That made its a challenge the firs ttime we tried to read it! There also aren/'t a lot of pages, but I guess you get your bang for your buck, especially if you kid is a big Thomas fan!


5 out of 5 stars a great book to interact with your child   February 7, 2008
This book is a wonderful learning tool. On one page the flaps contain numbers 1-10, another page has railway cars carrying each letter of the alphabet. And what kid doesn't love to lift all those flaps!


5 out of 5 stars Great Book   January 18, 2008
My son loves Thomas & Friends and flap books, so this was a hit with him. One of the flaps was not completely cut, so he has messed it up trying to get it to open. I guess I will sit down and try to get it opened up and then reglue the top back down. Other than that...great book!


4 out of 5 stars Fun and educational   December 16, 2007
My 3 year old loved this when he got it last year however he ripped off the flaps so luckily when a friend got him another one he knew enough not to rip it. It encourages parent/child interaction which every child needs for development. The flaps are somewhat difficult to open initially so adult helpful supervision is recommended.


5 out of 5 stars Sturdy lift-and-look book!   November 1, 2007
This book is so sturdy! My 2-year old loves to rip off flaps on lift-the-flap book but he hasn't done it on this one! It's great - we can make up stories about everything going on under the flaps and I will ask my son to find things for me that are under the flaps. It also can teach letters, numbers, and the alphabet, but my son doesn't care about that - he just wants to lift the flaps! We have had this book for almost a year and he still loves it. We will have this book a long time.
