This is a challenging search-and-find book that I recommend for early elementary. It requires close attention to detail and a good memory. Perfect for when basic "find the ..." books grow too easy

I like the concept of this book, but I found the simple writing at the beginning of each seek and find to be uneven. Sometimes it rhymed, and sometimes it didn't.

I'm not sure my 4 and 2 year old would be able to find matching vehicles because all the colors and shapes are very similar, so this may be better for slightly older children.

I do think the illustrations are pretty cute, and this would be a fun book for a child that wants to be challenged and is patient enough to make the effort.

I loved this book and so did my children. So much fun to read - we will likely buy it in print :) books in which you must find something or absorb something on every page really make reading fun and this book is no exception. It would be a perfect gift for a vehicle loving child in your life :)

Clever search and find book for early readers. Asks them to locate specific vehicles and colors.
Use to work on identification skills for preschoolers and early elementary students.

I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I know that my children always loved hidden picture books as children, and this one is great for very early readers. It helps with the colorful pictures and simple text. Children will learn about recognizing simple shapes and colors. This is a great learning tool.

Great book for paying attention to details. This book kept my kids busy for awhile. Great for a library.

This is a challenging search and find book for children. Each section starts with a sentence like "I lost my favorite truck-my fire truck. Where can it be hiding?" Then on the following page the child is told "Look at my red truck. Keep the picture in your head, turn the page, and if you see it, show me." This is followed with illustrations of many similar vehicles. There is then another quote and illustration of the next vehicle to be found.

I think that children will need patience for this book. They will need to examine the differences among similar objects. They will feel quite rewarded if/when they make the match!

This is a great book for kids who are interested in cars and different modes of transportation, and also love playing "find it". I feel like this book is for elder children, as it was not that easy, even for an adult, to find the appropriate shape among dozens. It was a lot of fun tho :). The colors and illustrations are adorable and make you want to play on every single page.

I requested this book for review because my five-year-old son looked over my shoulder while I was on the computer and begged to read it. After NetGalley sent me a copy, we sat down together to read. He loved it! Being the car, truck, and train fanatic that he is, he enjoyed every page. The drawings are adorable, and some are quite challenging.

Where is My Car? is a wonderful book for parents and kids to look at together. We will enjoy this book again and again.

My son gives it five stars!
