Zoom! Zoom! Sounds of Things That Go in the City by Robert Burleigh - ADVISABLE

Burleigh, Robert  Zoom! Zoom!  Sounds of Things That Go in the City  Illustrated by Tad Carpenter  Simon and Schuster, 2014.  $16.99  PICTURE BOOK  Content: G.  

This book follows transportation throughout a day in the city.  The book begins in the morning with the sun waking up the city and has different events happen, such as a fire truck going down the street, or people going off to lunch.  Then it ends with the city saying goodnight and all of the transportation going home and shutting down for the night.  

This book has bright, bold illustrations with cute cars that have faces.  The story is told in rhymes with a couple of paragraphs and some transportation sounds.  This is a fun, simple read for little people who like anything to do with cars and trucks.  

EL (K-3)-ADVISABLE.  Reviewer, C. Peterson.
