My Big Wimmelbook®―Cars and Things That Go: A Look-and-Find Book (Kids Tell the Story)

My Big Wimmelbooks let kids ages 2 to 5 be the storytellers with hours of seek-and-find hands-on learning―and fun!

This one-of-a-kind picture book features six panoramic scenes that are bursting with life―and tons to discover! First, your child will meet a colorful cast of characters: Dan the delivery man, Lucky the hungry dog, and more.

Then, as they explore the scenes―downtown shopping mall to Wimmeltown speedway―children as young as two will have a blast pointing out recognizable things, while older kids will begin to find the star characters . . . and tell their stories!

It’s hours upon hours of fun―and an effortless introduction to literacy to boot.

About Wimmelbooks

Wimmelbooks originated in Germany decades ago and have become a worldwide sensation with children (and adults!) everywhere. My Big Wimmelbooks is the first-ever Wimmelbook series to feature Wimmelbooks as Wimmelbooks in English. They’ve been praised as “lively . . . and abounding with humor and detail” (WSJ), likely to “make any parent’s heart sing.” (NYT)

How To Use Wimmelbooks

Wimmelbooks are one of the bestselling genres in Germany and worldwide, where every spread is a new panorama bustling with life. Wimmelbooks are virtually instruction-free, inviting kids (and parents!) to use their imagination and create stories they think fit. Wimmelbooks offer hours upon hours of fun—and an effortless introduction to literacy!

How To Use Wimmelbooks

Children Ages 2-3.

At these beginning stages, kids will have a blast seeking out objects and actions already familiar to them—a blue motorcycle, a person walking their dog, or a funny uh-oh moment like a character dropping his tools.

How To Use Wimmelbooks

Children Ages 3-4.

Each Wimmelbook introduces readers to a set of characters that appear in all of the book’s spreads. As kids get older, they develop the ability to identify and find the characters in each new scene — children can spot Amina and her children flying a kite on a sidewalk, then viewing a monster truck show, then going for a walk on the beach at the end of the day.

How To Use Wimmelbooks

Children Ages 4-5.

At this advanced reading stage, kids will go beyond recognizing the characters, and will begin crafting their ongoing stories as they follow them along from scene to scene! And, with so much going on, there will always be a new story to create.
