Great book, 4 yr old loved it although endless questions as to what our car is made from and why ours doesn’t have a swimming pool.

My 4 year old son and 6 year old daughter love this story. Really gets them thinking about how they would design a car.

Chris Van Dusen is a talented author. Perfect book for our 5 year old twins. I read the book to their reception class and the teacher immediately purchased it for the classroom – great use of imagination and rhyme to help early learners with their reading / phonics. My kids and I love it so much I bought several copies to give as birthday presents; they have been a big hit!

Now this is fun. A car with a swimming pool and snack bar? A car that flies and goes underwater? My kids love this book, and love describing what _their_ ideal car would be like.
