Publisher Description
Charlie loves things that go—planes, trains, bicycles, scooters, and even spaceships! He also loves to share in the fun of each mode of transportation with his dad. But, for Charlie, the best ride of all is when his dad swoops him up onto his shoulders for a piggyback ride! The first in a fresh, new board-book series takes the evergreen concept of transportation and gives it a tender, loving twist. Perfect for new dads and Father’s Day promotions, Charlie Rides captures a child’s love for transportation while also affirming that the quality time shared between father and son is what means the most.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
"This is Charlie and he loves to ride.../ bikes with Dad when it's sunny outside." That's how debut author-illustrator Bianchini introduces his young, vehicle-loving protagonist. In the pages that follow, readers see him competing in a soapbox derby, sledding "down Gooseberry Hill," and taking to the skies in an airplane and hot-air balloon always accompanied by his equally eager father. Bianchini's cartooning telegraphs the strong bond between father and son, as well as their evident joy in getting out and seeing the world, by any means available. It'd make a fine Father's Day gift but has broader appeal, too. Ages 3 5.
