Children's Literature
This sturdy board book is filled with bright pictures that have patches of different textured materials. Each relates to a part of a tractor. The cover page has a ridged foil inset and the little mouse comments that the engine is too bumpy. Inside, he remarks about the smooth funnel and scratchy seat. When he finally sees one with shiny headlights he recognizes it as his. Young kids' recognition of the differences (mainly color) is probably too sophisticated, but they will have fun with the textures and looking at the tractors on each page.
