Product ID: 48819407
Buckle up to learn all about helicopters! High-Flying Helicopters follows the animal crew as they become pilots.

From aeroplanes to fire engines, the internationally bestselling Amazing Machines series is the perfect way for children to learn about all sorts of vehicles! Each book introduces a new vehicle and the many jobs it can do. Bright, engaging artwork and simple, rhyming text combine to make these fantastic books for young children. Kids will love getting to know the friendly, animal characters who feature throughout the series and reading about their fast-paced adventures! Review: The best children's books need to tick several boxes, and this one does - The best books for small children need to be about something that interests them. They need to have big, cheerful illustrations. The word count needs to be just right - not too much, not too few. And it helps if they rhyme. This book does all these things - but what makes it even better is that it's a book that adults can enjoy too. It conveys information simply and with enjoyable rhymes, so that when a little one chooses it yet again, it's not a hardship for grown-ups to read it. 'Oi, Frog!' is also like this - but where the helicopters book is informative, 'Oi, Frog!' is hilarious. Get both! Review: The pictures are great and there is just a little technical info in ... - A lovely addition to the series. My three-yr-old loves the rhyming format (and so do I!). The pictures are great and there is just a little technical info in there for my budding engineer.

Good for young helicopter enthusiasts
My 2 year old is OBSESSED with helicopters so he loves this book. The rhyming is a bit dodgy in parts but overall a good book.

toto toto!
l'ho regalato ad un bambino di 2 anni e mezzo che è molto appassionato del TOTO (elicottero). Quando vuole il libro dice TOTO TOTO! E ogni volta è sempre molto contento di poterlo sfogliare e capire bene le storie in esso contenuto.

These books are brilliant!.
We have had a set of eight Tony Mitton books for years (submarines, planes, boats, diggers, & others). Although my kids are a bit old for them now, I couldn’t resist spending a few dollars on this helicopter one, mostly out of nostalgia, thinking of the many nights I read the others to my sons (who are now 10 & 12). These books are brilliant!... both the rhymes & the illustrations. I’d strongly recommend them for a one to six year old boy or girl. Hours of enjoyment.
