Overview
Buckle up for the Make Tracks board book collection, five vehicle-packed titles from Nosy Crow featuring artwork by Johnny Dyrander. Built for little hands and big imaginations, each sturdy board book follows a different set of wheels or wings, from emergency responders to construction crews to aircraft overhead. A signature sliding counter runs through every spread, letting toddlers physically trace a vehicle's path while simple words and friendly prompts encourage naming, pointing, and talking. Designed for ages 2-5, this five-book set turns everyday transport into a hands-on, interactive first-reading experience perfect for home, nursery, or classroom shelves.
About the Books
The Make Tracks series pairs Nosy Crow's playful early-learning approach with Johnny Dyrander's bold, high-contrast illustrations to create board books toddlers can genuinely interact with, not just look at. Each title in the collection isolates a single vehicle theme, Emergency, Building Site, Cars, In The Sky, or Trucks, so young readers can focus on one world at a time before moving to the next. A chunky sliding tab or moving counter threads through the pages of every book, inviting children to physically move a vehicle along its route while a caregiver names the truck, plane, or car it represents. This tactile mechanism turns passive page-turning into an active game, which helps hold the attention of even the busiest toddler while reinforcing cause and effect. The vocabulary throughout is deliberately short and repetitive, giving early talkers plenty of chances to practice new words like siren, digger, taxi, or crane. Rounded corners and thick board pages stand up to determined little hands, chewing, dropping, and repeated read-alouds, making these titles well suited to both quiet bedtime reading and noisier group storytimes. Because every book in the set shares the same trim size, format, and interactive feature, the five titles display neatly together and feel like a true collection rather than five unrelated purchases. Parents, grandparents, and early-years educators looking for a durable, vehicle-themed introduction to language and motor skills will find this set a practical, engaging addition to any toddler's bookshelf.
