K-3Mechanic Mike's Machines series.
In these high-interest volumes, easy-to-read main texts pair with slick computer-generated images to introduce varieties of vehicles and machines. Each spread also includes more-advanced-reading-level stats and facts, plus input from a little cartoon character called Mechanic Mike, in unfortunately miniscule gray font that often blends in with the background. There are three other fall 2014 books in this series. Glos., ind. Review includes these Mechanic Mike's Machines titles: Diggers, Planes, Rescue Vehicles, and Trucks.
