Bobby's Got a Brand-New Car

An easy read book , lovely illustrations. The book centres on Bobby buying a new car!! Some children may get the plot that this was all a dream while others may not!! The fact Bobby drives the car and pays for it with his magic card may need to be explained to some children. Overall it is a nice quick read .

Vroom vroom vroom, cars delight and captivate children from their imitatible sounds to the rolling moving parts. This book puts the littlest one in the drivers seat from picking out the wheels to taking mom and dad for a drive. I love the creative freedom this book invites and the illustrations are absolutely noteworthy and I will be drawing my trees a new way from here on out!

Bobby's Got a Brand New Car by Zidrou was full of child-like imagination and fun. Allowing a child to imagine and lice the life of and adult through story is such fun. The illustrations worked only to improve the story line.

'Bobby's Got a Brand-New Car' by Zidrou with illustrations by Sébastien Chebret is a fun ride through a child's imagination of grown up things.

Little Bobby gets to pick out his dream car (a convertible) and pay for it with his own money (the magic card that pays for everything!). He takes it out for a drive and listens to all the sounds a happy car makes. He picks up his mom from school, but when he gets dad, dad has to sit in the back.

The book never lets on whether this is a daydream, and I think I'm ok with that. Surely children are smart enough to know they can't drive cars yet. The magic card that pays for everything might be a teachable moment, but I say let the kids have a little dream of being big and being on the road.

It's a cute story and the illustrations are perfect. I liked the style that this book had. I also liked that it didn't belittle Bobby.

Bobby's Got a Brand-New Car by Zidrou is a fun ride through a child's imagination of grown up things. This was a fun and cute little book, but it isn't clear to children in my view that it is a dream, or his imagination running away with itself.

Adorable, and perfect for transportation story time! Kids like to imitate adults, so this is perfect. Also, it sets up for a sequel!
