Vehicles

🚗🚌✈️ Truck, truck, truck… wait—turtle?! 🐢👀

The delightfully sneaky Vehicles Hide and Sneak from Phaidon puts a clever twist on a toddler favorite: things that go. Designed by artist Bastien Contraire, this handsome odd-one-out board book challenges young readers to spot the imposter hiding in plain sight on every page.

Each spread presents a tidy group of vehicles that clearly belong together… until one very suspicious look-alike sneaks in. A toaster cruising with buses? A donkey revving alongside motorcycles? A bird soaring with airplanes? Cue the giggles, the pointing fingers, and the triumphant “there it is!” moments. 😂👉

As toddlers hunt for the misplaced addition, they’re quietly building skills in categorization, concentration, and visual discrimination—while also happily naming vehicles they already know and love. An answer key at the back keeps things friendly and frustration-free (because sometimes that turtle is very convincing).

With its clean, artful design and playful sense of humor, Vehicles Hide and Sneak feels smart, silly, and endlessly re-readable—perfect for curious little minds who love trucks, trains, planes… and the occasional mischievous surprise.

Ideal for ages 1–3.
A perfect pick for tiny transportation fans with sharp eyes and big smiles. 🚙✨
