National Geographic Kids Little Kids First Board Book: Things That Go

Look inside
Vibrant photos of race cars, trucks, trains, jets, and more will excite the very youngest travelers as they learn about the many ways that people get from here to there.

These sturdy pages showcase the ways people get around across land, water, and the sky with bold photos, supersimple facts, and lively, age-appropriate language to keep babies and toddlers--and their grown-ups--fascinated by every colorful page.

Designed to be the stepping-stone to the best-selling National Geographic Little Kids First Big Book series, the Little Kids First Board Book series takes similar subjects and distills them down to the simplest nonfiction concepts for the youngest audience. Not only will readers learn about several different kinds of transportation, they can also find recurring shapes and patterns in the art, while adults can keep their eyes open for occasional funny commentary from the animals. Sidebar text offers additional learning for older siblings or those ready for more complex information. With a square shape, bright and playful design, awesome photography, clear text, and cues to encourage interactive learning, the Little Kids First Board Books mirror the beloved First Big Books while taking a fresh approach to excite a baby's sense of wonder and make learning about nature and science fun.
