la história no tiene demasiado sentido, pero creo que no es el objetivo.

se basa en enseñar a los más chiquitines los 2 colores básicos del semáforo (imagino que no explica el amarillo porque es más complejo de entender en edades tan tempranas), y muestra varios tipos de vehículos que nos podemos encontrar por la carretera.

Right from the start young readers are set up to realize there is going to be a big problem. There’s a bird making a nest in the light!

This is a rhyming picture book for younger readers feature nearly every vehicle you would see on the roadways.

Unfortunately, all the cars get damaged and have some boo-boos that need fixing. They get sent off to the repair shop and viola! They are all fixed, cleaned up and shining prettily.

Now the bird has moved on to make its nest elsewhere…

Traffic jams are so easy to cause, especially when a little birdie causes so much awe! In all seriousness, however, this is a very cute and beautifully illustrated book about how one small event can cause a major pileup and then, in the end, everything is just fine.

As children's books go, it was okay. It's meant to be read to really young children, but the rhyming felt kind of contrived.

Nice pace. Pretty illustrations.

This was a good, rhyming book with nice, colorful illustrations. Cars are fun for my toddler. He enjoyed listening and looking at the images.

Traffic jam

A red bird nest on the traffic light and causes some trouble. Not to worry, the cars are all fixed. A good short story for tiny friends.

If you are looking for a fun, humorous book to read to the little ones this fits the bill. It’s full of great rhymes about a little bird and a traffic jam.

The pictures of all the cars and the rhymes had me laughing and smiling and by the end I even wanted to read it again, forget about the kids.

Pick this one up and have a fun bedtime read with your precious little ones (Or just enjoy it yourself, no one has to know).
