My Little Wagon Board book – April 15, 2003

I gave my toddler neighbor a wagonand this book went with it perfectly! He is happy riding around with his book!

We have a ton of books in our house! Yet this book always manages to make the favorites list for each of my 4 children from 8 months old through toddler years. From my 10 year old boy/girl twins, my 8 year old son, and now, after a long gap, my soon-to-be one year old, this book has been well read. I decided to write a review after watching my 1 year old sitting on the floor today quietly looking through the book. It is sight I've seen many times through the years. My entire family knows this book by heart! Babies and kids love the illustrations. The text is cute and is rhythmical. A wonderful book. This was written by Alma Powell, Colin Powell's wife.I've included the text below so that you know what you are getting, and don't feel misled by my review. All I can say is that my each of my children have loved it!This is my wagon.For pushing...and pullingFor uphill...and downThis is my wagonFor cleaning...For storingAnd exploringAnd hitting home runsThis is my Daddy who says every day..."I'll help you pull it all of the way."

My Little Wagon features a cute bear using a wagon in various ways. He uses it for pushing and pulling. He also uses it for cleaning and exploring. His dad also getin the act by loading trash in the wagon for the neighborhood clean up.The book is made of study board pages. This makes it a great preschool storybook. Little hands can turn the pages easily. There are few words per page, which is great for young kids with short attention spans.We would recommed this book to families with small children. The story is easy to read and short making it a great bedtime story.

We got this book at the library after we bought our 15 mos old son a Radio Flyer. It has a cute message, things like carrying library books, using your wagon at the community garden, taking it to the baseball field. Good for boys and girls, in fact I believe the bear IS a girl (hard to tell). Very few words, sometimes we make some up. A nice solid book with nothing offensive or controversial in it.
