Wheels: The Big Fun Book of Vehicles

Description:

No one knows who exactly invented the wheel, but in the inventive hands of illustrator Tom Schamp young readers will have great fun learning about all the ways wheels have rolled through history.

From prehistoric carts to cars of tomorrow, this big, fun book takes a historic journey through a world where everything has wheels, from the Trojan horse to the Harley Davidson; from the stagecoach and the steam train to the Vespa and the Ferrari; from skateboards to electric scooters.

Every spread of this deliriously entertaining and educational book is filled with Tom Schamp’s quirky and colorful art. His sly, subtle texts will make older readers smile. Younger readers will return again and again to these playfully crowded pages to discover what different countries’ emergency vehicles look like; to learn about buses of every imaginable dimension and weight; and to choose which bike they’d use to win a race.

Each viewing will reveal charming new details that are as absurdly funny as they are educationally rewarding.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for vehicle obsessed child!!

A. · June 23, 2025

Do you have a vehicle obsessed child? I cannot recommend this book enough!! Not only is it comprehensive and shows everything that exists with wheels but there is always something new to discover!! I sweat, every time he opens the book, he finds something brand new and unique (a toaster car, a hidden ghost, etc.). This is a bedtime must-have!

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun!!

I love this artist. He creates so many beautiful images, full of creativity and color! You can look in his books daily and still find something new to see. I love reading this with my son who's completely into cars and trucks. We have so much fun

1.0 out of 5 stars Cute cover but that’s about it!

B. · March 4, 2025

The illustrations are pretty but the book is just a picture book (no story). And shame on whoever slapped this sticker barcode on the cover!! It won’t come off and has left an awful sticky residue. Totally ruined the book. Absolutely careless!

2.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful illustrations - but a tough book to get through

M. · June 11, 2025

Great illustrations but impossible to read. There’s no connection between the ideas - so its just a series of short statements / jokes that don’t land with kids. Frustrating for children and parents.

1.0 out of 5 stars Wildly Inappropriate Illustrations

E. · November 29, 2024

I wanted to like this book. The illustrations seemed unique and I thought the concept was cool. However, there are a number of pictures that make this book inappropriate for children. I’m not at all prudish, but there was no need for the knight picture (which was wildly inappropriate…I included the “eggplant” over the most inappropriate portion), but a couple more were incredibly suggestive. The last one I included in the collage is simply an unnecessary and inappropriate reference for kids. There were a few other, more subtle references, but I don’t think most kids would pick up on them.I’m SO glad I looked this over before giving to my niece and nephew!!

Wonderful

T. · March 12, 2025

This is a fantastic book. My daughter loves it and we have read it so many times. The pictures are so good.

Imaginative, informative and fun!

M.W. · January 17, 2024

Given as a gift to a child whose father told me he liked things with wheels. This has a LOT of wheels, covering the history of wheeled objects in surprising depth, largely through the medium of illustration, with each page stuffed with intriguing details, such that it will take a long time for readers to discover all of its contents! Very with pleased with the reaction of father and son, so can highly recommend for any young, wheel-obsessed kids!

Wonderful illustrations

Exceptional book about “wheels”

S. · March 18, 2024

My vehicle obsessed son got this for his 3rd birthday and it’s now one of his favourite books. Outstanding illustrations and fun facts throughout, full of little jokes and Easter eggs to make it enjoyable for adults too. We have fun looking for the caterpillars, racing mice and birds hiding on every page.
