"There is no better book to read with a child than this. Lay down on your tummies and flip through the pages, looking for Goldbug and enjoying the trip along with the Pig family. It's fun to point out different things going on on the wildly busy pages! Thank heaven for Richard Scarry!"
"Cole gives this book a big thumbs up. This has become part of Cole's morning ritual. Sometimes he just shows us where Goldbug is hiding. The pictures even capture Bay's attention. Thank you, Granny Book"
"MOMMY SAYS: Richard Scarry's books are some of the forgotten classics of children's books (okay, maybe they're only forgotten by me, or maybe they're only "classics" because I loved them so much as a child). This is one book that we must have owned when I was little, because I remember so much of it. I loved revisiting the silly cars and trucks: the pickle tanker, the carrot car, the bananamobile. I loved spotting Goldbug on each bright and colorful page. This one was a big hit with my vehicle-loving boys, too. Be prepared to spend a good thirty minutes or more thumbing through the pages - and if your library has two copies, check them both out so you avoid fights on the car ride home. ;-)
LOGAN SAYS: I like that all the cars zoom on every page in Cars and Trucks and Things That Go. And it's really really really really really really really funny."
"This book is a delight, surprising in its level of real humor. The ambience created by the diverse cars on the highway and the scenes that they pass is something special, and I find that this Richard Scarry book holds up very nicely over time. My family and I have been determinedly searching for Goldbug in these pages from as far back as I can remember. This book is inextricably tied to a lot of good memories for me, but it stands up quite well independent of those memories, too."
