ISBN 0763614637 - Maisy, by virtue of her popularity, is a nice weapon in the getting-them-to-read wars. And I say "wars" because I'm thinking boys in particular with this one. Featuring vehicles and their sounds, Maisy Drives will appeal to both genders, but every parent of a boy knows that they can be harder to get reading.

Maisy drives various vehicles, including a plane and all the way to a tricycle, and each image is accompanied by the sound the vehicle makes. "Maisy drives the tractor. Chug, chug!"

Whatever gets a kid's nose in a book is a great thing. The illustrations are standard Maisy, basic and colorful. The sturdy board book pages stand up to toddlers well. Worth picking up!
