Roaring Rockets (Amazing Machines)

It is a cute little book. Some of the pages might be a little dark, so the print may need to be read by someone who can see this kind of contrast. But the book is about rockets and with limited text and colorful pages. Not the most beautiful pictures. But cute with nonfiction information about rockets. Good for use with rocket stories, rocket toys, puzzles, games, movies, etc. Depending on the needs of the participants. Older readers can read to the younger ones and then they can play games or work puzzles about space and rockets, or play with water rocket toys, and make creative treats. This can be a rocketing way for participants to bond while fueling their imaginations. Bringing STEM to the little ones.

This book is so fun to read! My 2 year old is obsessed with rocket ships right now, and this has been so fun to read with her. The art is also super cute and I love that it’s a pretty accurate story.

5 year old grandson loves it!

My favorite thing about these books is at the end. Once the story is over, the last page has pictures and descriptions of the parts of the rocket but put it in kids terms, easy enough for my 3 yr old to understand. I have purchased 4 out of the 10 in this series and they all do that. The stories are simple and interesting and about everything that little boys love, while teaching them the jobs of the various vehicles and the people who drive them.

I purchased this book along with another toy for my 3-year-old nephews birthday. Although paperback, the book is well made and the story very cute! He loves being read to so I was thankful that these gifts paired together so well! If you're looking for a wonderful present combo for a little boy or girl who loves space/rockets, look no further! The Original Stomp Rocket: Dueling 4-Rocket Kit (20888)

Your child/grandchild will absolutely LOVE this toy. Our 2 year old grandson has been playing with it constantly since it arrive. It is easy for him to put the rockets on the launcher himself and he loves this. The one thing that we did was use some duct tape to add more support to the legs otherwise it kept folding in on itself. Still a terrific gift that offers so many opportunities to teach about movement with air, trajectory and how to change it, the power of force. And, not to be dismissed lightly, the sheer delighted laughter that accompanies a successful launch. Well done!

We have a lot of the books in this series now and my son would love to have them all. Unlike other "franchise" type series, each one of these books is as creative and fun as the last... there's not one that my son doesn't like. He's three now and does prefer longer stories, but they're really good filler books that he never turns down, and I really enjoy reading them as the rhymes and images are a lot of fun. There's also a very cool glossary at the end that gives insight into what the parts of the vehicle are and what they do, that might actually be the most fun for my little guy. Really love this entire series, we've had a lot of fun with them!

For the past few months my 2 year old has been obsessed with rockets. He makes rockets out of his food, out of his feet, literally anything. He even loves watching old rocket launches on YouTube. He doesn't have any books about rockets and I found this one on Amazon and it seemed great. It rhymes and its not too long or too short. It keeps his attention span great and I don't get annoyed when he asks me to read it 5 times in a row!
