Lazy Larry

Larry is a lamb who drives because he's too lazy to walk. When he visits his animal friends, he takes his car to several strange places. Lazy Larry is just one of four charming Crazy Racers titles. Crazy Racers are clever little storybooks-and they're also miniature racing cars that toddlers can whiz around on the floor. With a little help from Mom or Dad, kids simply lift the book's front cover, then set the cardboard driver on the flap into a slot, sitting him upright with his steering wheel. Each book has brightly colored plastic wheels that won't break off, and the extra-thick board pages tell the story of an animal who is going places and having fun with friends. Cheerful color illustrations come with easy-reading words and phrases that pre-schoolers can readily understand. (Ages 3-5)
