Children's Literature
Activity-inspired books help endure long plane and car travel, restaurant waits, or enjoy hotel down time. On the noisier side is the involving Big Noisy Trucks and Diggers. This board book has bright photographs showing trucks in action on one page. The text opposite the picture is filled with symbols that correspond to buttons children press to make the sound of a starting engine, a horn and more. The sound quality, subject and appeal are great. That means it might be best for the isolation of a hotel room. 2001, Chronicle, $12.95. Ages 3 to 6. Reviewer: Susie Wilde
