Truck, truck, truck... turtle! Spot the imposter on each page, in this handsome collection of vehicles and look-alikes.

Behold this artful and unusual odd-one-out board book for the youngest readers, featuring a favorite theme: transportation. Contraire masterfully creates a group of images on each spread which all belong together, and then adds one that bears some degree of resemblance, but has no business joining the rest. A toaster among buses, a donkey among motorcycles, and a bird among planes are all hiding in plain sight for the delighted toddler to giddily discover! Young readers will exercise skills of categorization and concentration in finding the misplaced addition, and enjoy naming the specific vehicles as well! Features an answer key at the end.

"We brought the books out to a discerning group of 2 - 7 year olds at the start of a craft session and my suspicions on how they would react was more than borne out.

They would make great birthday present or stocking filler this Christmas."-CoombeMill.com (Family farm holidays in Cornwall)

"Contraire has done a phenomenal job making the "sneaks" look so similar... Each clever choice of misplaced object provokes thoughtful discussion on categorization...
