'... an introduction to modes of transport in a cleverly designed Scottish landscape... The small board book format makes it ideal for young hands still learning to manipulate and sturdy enough to withstand their attempts. Kate McLelland’s illustrations are bold and bright, simple but with enough to keep the interest and attention of wee bairns!'
