“Bizzy Bear: Race Car Driver” is a board book by Benji Davies with manipulable tabs. The book follows Bizzy Bear, a bear who is taking part in a car race. The illustrations are bright and fun. All of the characters are animals and the text is short and rhymes, which will appeal to younger kids who are being read to. Tabs that turn the start lights from red to green, make Bizzy Bear drive around the track, and other actions are fun and give kids practice with finger dexterity.

Aimed at ages 2-3, this board book will be enjoyed by most kids, especially those who are into race cars. Not an original idea, but a lot of fun, this is recommended as a secondary purchase for libraries with board book collections. Bear in mind that the tabs will get a lot of use if this book is part of a library collection.
