Planes: Fire & Rescue (Disney Planes: Fire & Rescue) (Little Golden Book) Kindle Edition

This book is the favorite of our three year old grandson, he insists his parents read it to him every night before bedtime. I think he loves the excitement and sense of urgency portrayed in the book, and this book helps children to make sense of what they see going on around them every day. Now when he sees an airplane, he knows what it is, and asks his parents where the airplane is going, how many people are on board, and what they are doing. These types of books help children to think, and be engaged in life. This book clearly deserves the five star rating I gave it!

pretty solid SHORT adaptation of the movie. Illustrations are fun, and the text is admirably short. Many of the characters are just introduced and never mentioned again, but given this is a SHORT book pretty darn well done. My son (3yo) is obsessed with this movie and loves this book just as much.

This is our grandson's book of choice when it's time for a story. He's heard it so much now (and he's only 2), he can actually recite every page to us, with just a little prompting. Such a cute story -- of a young plane that wants to help his town, so he gets trained as a fire fighter plane. Great illustrations.

This copy was so used that the binding was peeling and seems likely to break soon. Would not recommend.

Very cute book. Teaches a lot of great lessons. What little boy doesn't like airplanes?!? Definitely recommend. As a parent I don't mind reading this book over and over!

This is certainly old news, but as a fairly recent parent, I was excited to buy my daughter's first Golden Book. My wife and I eagerly awaited the arrived of what we felt convinced would be the first Golden Book in a large library of stories and fun! After all, I had a sizable collection of them as a child and they played a big role in my love of books and reading. I saw no reason why my daughter couldn't experience this too!Sadly, for whatever reason, the quality of Golden Books has dropped by several orders of magnitude. The book arrived significantly warped (other parents tell me that is "normal" and that it's quite hard to find a new Golden Book that is NOT warped), the pages were not cut evenly, and one even hung out farther than the rest (long edge) so anyone could easily get a paper cut. In fact ALL the pages hang out farther than the "hardback" cover. When I purchase ANY book, the last thing I'm expecting is to have to trim it so as not to harm anyone.Insult to injury, the animation style in this book is NOTHING like movies, Planes F&R is my daughter's FAVORITE movie but she barely connects that these are the same characters. Same goofy disconnected art style that's at the end of Bolt and a few other Disney movies. Cute but just not really reinforcing the brand's style... this is Planes (2 even), and Planes is no Cars (in popularity).Admitted this oversight is OUR fault for impulse buying the book from the "you just added _______ to you cart! You might also like _______" offers at checkout, and not looking into the pictures more thoroughly; as such my rating is NOT taking this part of my disappointment into account.Overall is this still a good book for your kids? Except for the papercut hazard, probably so if your lil one is a fan, just be aware of the differing "babyesque" art style.Again, this score is reflecting the horrendous drop in quality that Golden Books manufacturing has suffered over the years, not the content of the book.Sadly the last one I'll be purchasing, they're just not worth it.Can anyone else recommend a similar book series/type?

My granddaughters are big Pixar and airplane fans so this book was perfect. I am a believer in finding books about children's interests and giving them the opportunity by letting them read it or if they are too young, read it to them and spark that interest in reading.I am a fan of Golden books and this is a good one.

Good for kids. Kids enjoy such books. The problem here is that app does not let to read unless we rate it. Not sure how though.

Bought for grandson

Well it's small and the covers are cardboard, but what do you expect for £2.50 new? It got four stars because my son absolutely loves it, and asks for it EVERY DAMN NIGHT. But then he is an absolute Planes nut, much to my dismay.

Quality is rubbish, so I was disappointed when I opened it. It felt like you could cut your fingers into the paper...but my boy is crazy about Disney Planes so he liked it... However I would spend double money but get a normal book next time

Wasn’t impressed when received (folding of book abit strange) but a good little book that any Disney Planes lover would love.

Grandson loves anything Planes and Cars, good condition book,
