My 3 year old is obsessed with the Halloween edition

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 15, 2022

My 3 year old LOVES Little Blue Truck's Halloween. She will be thrilled when she opens this on Christmas! The book arrived in great condition. It's not wrapped or protected in the box, though. There's a pull tab on the back to activate the twinkle lights.

Little Blue Truck Christmas

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 19, 2022

I bought this book for my son for Christmas. Overall the book was what we expected. However, when I opened the packed the book cover was torn separately from the book pages. I still have not pulled the tab from battery pack to try the twinkle lights due to the book cover needing repaired.

Disappointing in the series

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 8, 2019

We have several Little Blue Truck books and we love reading them. The original one is a very nice board book, and the Halloween has flip panels that our daughter LOVES to play with. Both very cute stories (and I highly recommend). This Christmas edition is really disappointing and strays from the path that I think Little Blue Truck runs.

First off, the book itself is a flimsy quality. While it is technically "hard cover", the pages aren't well suited for our 12 month old. We stick to board books and thought this would fit in the same category as the other Little Blue Trucks. I wish this were advertised as a regular book or had something in the description so parents knew it wasn't like the others.

Second, the story isn't as much fun. Sure counting trees is great, but we can count anything on the pages without the story simply revolving around counting. It kind of feels like the publishing company said "just get something Christmas related out there - it'll sell great". Doesn't have the same uniqueness and special touch that the others have.

Third - and this is a big reason for the 1 star - the twinkle lights are INSANELY bright. Hurt my eyes bright. I don't want my child to look at them bright. We ended up shelving the book instead of reading it, and I'm going to rip out the electronics before we reintroduce it next year.

TL;DR: I'm a fan of other little blue truck books, but this one really missed the mark.

Not as advertised.

This is advertised as a “board book”. The pages are thicker paper glued together at the ends. My 2 year old grandson loves his books and will have these pages ripped in no time. I'm disappointed as it’s a cute story.

Missing battery and not a board book.

I was mostly dissapointed that it was not a board book like I had expected. Pages were thin a glued together. I didn't even realize it had lights until I saw the battery area on the back with no pull tab. Unscrewed it and there were only 2 batteries.

Would have been perfect if the adhesive from the packaging wasn’t impossible to get off.

Dangerous button battery

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 25, 2019

Verified Purchase

I love this series of books and own most of them. My kid loves them and this one is great . The problem is it contains a button battery so the last page lights up. There’s a warning on the back that it can cause death within 2 hours if swallowed. So why put this inside a book for toddlers? The story is perfect on its own without adding a deadly component for a cheap thrill. I’m really disappointed in the author of these stories for allowing that to be added. People who make children’s toys and books should start taking more responsibility for these deadly batteries.

Painful to the eyes.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 30, 2020

My daughter loves the Little Blue Truck books. So I got this for her for Christmas. Of the Little Blue Truck books, I think it’s not the best one. But most importantly, the “twinkle lights” are painfully bright. They hurt your eyes. And they terrify my daughter. Even after I disabled the lights she is scared to open it. And for a while, she was even afraid to open the other Little Blue Truck books. And she’s not wrong. They hurt your eyes!

I love this book

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 1, 2018

Verified Purchase

I love this book. My 1 year old son loves the flashing lights. However, the flashing lights simply don't work. I've purchased this book twice now, and I've purchased the small watch batteries as well. It take 3 of them. And regardless of which book I tried or how new the batteries were, the lights just don't work. I mean, they work maybe 1 out of 20 times. I can't imaging the batteries running out after just using it once or twice, but that seems to be what's going on. It's a shame really, because it's an enjoyable book to read. But it leaves you disappointed at the end.

NOT a board book!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 27, 2021

Verified Purchase

This is NOT a board book and is falsely advertised as such. The pages are 2 thick pieces of floppy paper glued together in the corners. My toddler ripped several pages within the first minute he had this book. The story is disappointing for this author, and the lights stopped working on day 2.

Broke after 3 reads.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 17, 2020

My son was so excited to receive this in the mail today. We read it 3 times, and his face would literally light up on the last page. The 4th time we read it, the lights stopped working. My son cried. I tried taking the back off fixing the batteries. If I push on them really hard, it sometimes work, but as soon as I screw the back on, they stop working. Very, very disappointed 😢

Bad quality

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 9, 2021

Why all the positive reviews? I’m sorry, I do love this series. The Halloween and original book are fantastic. Great quality and storyline. This book is awful. Not a true board book. The pages are flimsy and cheap. The plot is boring and doesn’t do the Christmas season justice.
