“One of these things is almost like the others … ” begins this board book, prompting readers to locate on each two-page spread the object that, upon closer examination, definitely does not belong. Insects, animals, and household objects hide among the small collections of vehicles of the same type (boats on one page spread, airplanes on another, and so on). On one spread there are four buses—no, three buses and a toaster. On another, there are five helicopters and a hornet. The color palette adds difficulty—each object is printed in solid shades of hot pink and blue—and each vehicle differs slightly from the others of its type, slowing down the eye as it searches for the rogue object. (Ages 1-3)

Truck, truck, truck... turtle! Spot the imposter on each page, in this handsome collection of vehicles and look-alikes.

Behold this artful and unusual odd-one-out board book for the youngest readers, featuring a favorite theme: transportation. Contraire masterfully creates a group of images on each spread which all belong together, and then adds one that bears some degree of resemblance, but has no business joining the rest. A toaster among buses, a donkey among motorcycles, and a bird among planes are all hiding in plain sight for the delighted toddler to giddily discover! Young readers will exercise skills of categorization and concentration in finding the misplaced addition, and enjoy naming the specific vehicles as well! Features an answer key at the end.
