HOW THINGS WORK

nice concept, a bit overpriced for the amount of content

This is a gorgeous book, the pictures and descriptions are entirely appropriate for a 5-year-old

GuD learning books

I bought this for my grandson. It was love at first sight. Lots of lift up tabs but as well as being fun it is highly informative and the adults in the family have learnt from it. It helps explain things around us in a way that's both simple and pitched at a suitable level. My grandson took it to day nursery and they have now bought a copy as they were so impressed.

I love usborne books and this one does not disappoint. My 3 1/2 yrs son got it for Christmas and it was the hit of the day. There is so much to look at and learn about, and the level of content will be useful to him for years to come. Presentation is exciting and engaging, with so many flaps to lift that it took several read throughs to find them all!This book has been so popular that we have bought it as a present for several children, all of whom loved it.(3 years later) I’m updating this review to say that yes, he still loves it and is still asking me to let him look in the cistern of our toilet! I think we are raising a plumber:-)

Perfect for my 7 year old son who needs to know everything but has no patience. The interaction this book allows is fantastic! He actually wants to read! Because its fun! Great Buy! Highly Recommended!

Love these books, as they play nicely into kid's curiosity and there is a high educational aspect as well.Our kids are 5 and 8 -years old and they both like them. This one is more liked by our 5 year old son, some of the more serious historical ones are more liked by his 8 year old sister.Some of our 'See Inside' books have been read hundreds of times.The only draw back is that we got almost all of them now and the collection takes up quite a bit of space.Moreover this particular one we already had.. so had to return.

Purchased How Things Work book for my 5 year old Granddaughter, who rated this book as "Best Book Ever" the reason for this rating - the 90 pull out flaps. She is thrilled with the content. Keeps her occupied and interested. Arrived in super quick time, well packaged. Would recommend.
