Text copyright © 2014 by Erin Edison. These 8 x 8 thick board books are waiting for little hands to have fun pulling, pushing, swiping, and opening up tabs so they can have fun destroying imaginary buildings and crushing imaginary red sports cars. Your active little boy-and girl-will love Blow It Up!, Crush It!, Shred It!, and Knock It Down! The books can be purchased separately, but as a bundled set Capstone has a special price that will save you a bundle (pun intended). The books are sturdy board books, all with nicely thick pages that will withstand some tugging pulling and pushing. A couple of times reading to them and they will be reading on their own, even if it is only memorizing what you read-it is a start, a good start. It is truly fun to read these books aloud to your child. In addition to pulling, pushing, swiping, and opening tabs, kids will read. Kids will love these four “destruction” books. Swing the tab once more and whack the wall with another wrecker ball. It was horrible watching neighbors’ possessions fall to the ground. True story, when my building caught fire a few years back-no, I did not start the fire-the fire department used a loader, with the pick-up container held upside down, just like it Knock It Down! The firemen pulled everything out of the apartments and the rest of the wall, too. Pull the next tab down and whack the lower part of the building with a loader, pulling down what remains. Get that yellow construction hat on, if you got one, or use your bike helmet. “Whack!” Pieces are falling, so watch your head. Slide the tab and make that ball ram into the building. When you swings it into the building you will wreck it. That big steel ball is called a wrecking ball. It is time to Knock It Down! There is a building you can knock down. The mat you mom stands on in the kitchen, or the mat she makes you wipe your feet on before coming in the house, is most likely recycled rubber tire. “Thunk, thunk!” Listen as the rubber is pulverized, “Whirl! Crunch!” Look out, here comes the pieces of rubber ready to be made into all sorts of things. Drive over and dump those bad tires into the shredder. Go ahead, shred pick it up and all the other bad tires with your forklift. So open up Shred It! One of those tires from that car has a hole in it. We are going to salvage everything possible. This car is ratty, but the engine looks pretty good. ![]() Never mind that, here comes car number two. I am not sure where the plastic goes (my car is practically all plastic). That red sports car will soon become a square of steel. ![]() Yep, that car is a goner and it is up to the reader to pick up the car with a forklift and dump it into the crusher. Pull up the tab and, “Oh, no! The beautiful car! It is a piece of rusty junk.” When the kids have exploded structures to their heart’s content, it will be time to Crush It! Let’s start with that beautiful car. In the process, the book gives your child, or you, the chance read with unabashed enthusiasm, “Boom, Kah-Pow, and Kaboom,” when your young child makes rubble out of the structure on the spread. Little boys will love bringing down a building, bridge, and sports arena with dynamite. Today is best called “Boys Day.” Girls can enjoy these interesting activity books, as I did, but it is mostly boys who receive these books. And what destruction your child can imagine causing-all in the name of safety, not hoodlumism. “An old building is crumbling and unsafe.” [Pull the tab down and bring the building to its knees, or the ground, if you prefer.”Ĭollectively, these four books ( Blow It Up!, Shred It!, Crush It!, and Knock It Down!), are called the Destruction Group. “RIP! CRUNCH! SHRED! Lift flaps, pull tabs, and move levers to shred tires into tiny pieces!” “SMACK! WHACK! BASH! Lift flaps, pull tabs, and move levers to knock that building down! “CLUNK! CRUNCH! SMASH! Lift flaps, pull tabs, and move levers to crush those cars flat! “BOOM! CRASH! CRUMBLE! Lift flaps and pull tabs to make buildings explode! Blow It Up! – Crush It! - Shred It! – Knock It Down!
