    Fabulous

    This book is fabulous! The story is action packed, entertaining, and written in sentences and words children understand. The colors are so brilliant it keeps the children's eyes glued to the page. The voice in the 'read to me' version is just right too. It is powerful yet has a tender tone that will keep children comfortable.

    Excellent babysitter but cheesy

    Good for when your voice is too tired for bedtime stories, but the read to me was WAY over done. I spent some time feeling sorry for the narrarator at the "VA-VROOM!s," but my sister loved it.

    Wonderful sounds!

    My son loved the sound effects; we read it over and over again. I couldn't afford the Disney Cars book he'd chosen and this was a great substitute!

    Fun for little boys, not so much parents

    Another nicely illustrated but utterly inane plotless and pointless children's book. The two year old asks for it and seems to enjoy the silly noises, but his mother can barely take it.

    Loved It :)

    My son is a hesitant begining reader who also suffers from ADD. This book was just the thing we needed. The story was totally interesting to him and having the naration to help him he was not intimidated to try and read it. He wants to come back and read it over and over. On top of that it's FREE! Happy kid, happy Mom
