"Brilliant rhyming picture book about a boy’s passion for tractors and books"
With charming illustrations by Jenny Lovlie, and a perfectly-pitched story-in-rhyme by award-winning Davina Bell, I Love Tractors is a wonderful ode to the joys of finding your thing through books. It will surely strike a special chord with toddlers who know exactly what they’re interested in, and with long-suffering parents who think they’ve heard everything there is to hear about their child’s favourite subject.
When Frankie McGee visits the library, his mum despairs when he wants to borrow yet another book about tractors: “There are more than a squillion good books here to try. Why is it always those tractors, Frank, why?!” In response, Frankie enthusiastically proceeds to explain exactly why it’s always tractors.
The rhyming text is a work of elegance - the words slip smoothly from the tongue, making it a delight to read aloud, and an enthralling listening experience for little ones, whether you’re reading it as a pre-bedtime treat, or in a classroom context. Oh, and special mention must go to lovely librarian, Miss Squid, who promises to be on hand when Frankie fancies reading about another topic - “When you want something different, just come and find me. A boy who likes books is a nice thing to see.” We’re with you on that, Miss Squid!
When Frankie McGee insists on borrowing yet another book about tractors, his mum crumbles. She begs him to read a book about something else - cars, planes, cranes, trains - anything! Frankie launches into all of the various, glorious factors that make up the love that he has for all tractors - but will he be able to bring his mum around?
