A real-photo picture book about traffic signs - written by a four-year-old who knows every one of them.
Ash loves road signs. Stop signs, railroad crossings, one-way arrows, crosswalk buttons, fire lanes, school zones. Most people walk right past them. Ash reads them.
In this photographic picture book for kids ages 3 to 10, Ash takes young explorers on a walk through his own neighborhood and explains what each traffic sign means - then tells you what it means to him. A stop sign says slow down and check that the coast is clear. A pedestrian crossing says explorers look out for each other. A no-turn-on-red says your turn is coming, be patient.
Every sign in this book is a real photograph taken on real streets - no clip art, no cartoons. Children recognize the exact signs they pass on the way to school, which turns an ordinary car ride or walk around the block into a scavenger hunt.
Inside this road signs book for kids:
- 20+ real traffic signs, signals and street signs, photographed up close
- Simple, read-aloud text for toddlers, preschoolers and early readers
- Shapes, colors and words - octagons, diamonds, red, yellow, green
- Gentle lessons in road safety, patience, sharing and looking out for others
- An illustrated glossary of every sign in the back, for kids who want more
- A closing challenge: how many signs can YOU find today?
Perfect for: toddlers and preschoolers obsessed with cars, trucks and traffic; kids learning street signs and road safety; sign-loving and transportation-obsessed children; classroom and homeschool units on community helpers, safety and signs; and any child who has ever shouted STOP SIGN! from the back seat.
This is the second book in the Arlo & Ash Explorers Series - two brothers who love figuring out how the world works. Look for Arlo and the Million Mile Truck.
Ash is four years old. This is his first book. If you see a sign out there you don't recognize, he probably already knows what it means.
