That's Not My Car by Fiona Watt - Touchy Feely Book from Usborne
That's Not My Car is one book from a large series of the Touchy Feely books from Usborne. It is a chunky board book suitable for young children around the ages of 1 to 3.
The book has lovely bright and bold pictures on each page and the best thing about this book is the fact there is a different texture to feel with each new picture. The picture on the front of the book is of a carthat has lovely shiny windows and the caption underneath says... "That's not my car its windows are too shiny!" This phrase we see all the way through to the last page where the caption changes to "That's my Car..." instead.
This is by far the best book from the series as the pictures are brilliant with the bits that you touch being more different than the other books we have ...
Pixar's world where cars do the talking and the racing is turned upside down when Lightning McQueen is lost in Radiator Springs.
The plot of this film is , in my opinion, unsurprising, but it does bring together a diverse mix of characters. As with many [all?] Pixar productions, this is ultimately a feel-good movie.
There are elements of the film that will please different age groups at different levels; I enjoyed the film as an adult, and my children took different elements of enjoyment from it.
Finally, as with all PIxar movies in my experience, the animation, music score, and voice acting is impeccale good.
In summary, this is a feel-good movie aimed at older pre-teens, that has something that younger children can enjoy, and is so easy to watch that teens and above would find this a relaxing and fun film. ...
