Planes
Written by Felicity Brooks

Publication date: 2010
Publisher: Usborne Publishing
ISBN: 978-0794526696

Summary/Back cover:
This is a new addition to this popular pre-school series featuring lots of flaps to lift and Jo Litchfield's handmade models. Scenes include a jumbo jet at the airport, a sea plane landing and a private jet ready to take off. With surprises under the flaps and something special to find on every spread. Busy scenes provide lots to see and talk about, helping to expand vocabulary and observation skills.

Review:
For those children who are obsessed by planes this book is a must. The flaps reveal gangways, cockpits, cabins, and control towers. My plane obsessed daughter was amazed by the seaplane and the air ambulance. A sturdy book that stands up to the grasping fingers of toddlers, engages their imagination and encourages discussion on the many finer details in the great illustrations.

4/5
