I'm a pretty big fan of Pixar's CARS and was actually disappointed that the DK's CARS ESSENTIAL GUIDE just didn't give me the knowledge that I wanted. And what is it that I want? I want a book that gave me the background info not on the main characters - but EVERYONE ELSE. I'm talking about each and every other race car (besides the main three) and a whole lot more.This book is currently the CLOSEST at doing just that, giving you a short paragraph back story on *almost* every car seen in the film, including the year, model / make of the car as well. Did you know that every race car has an individual name just like Lightning McQueen? I sure didn't and you'll find them all here (not even the Mattel toys give you the name of the individual race cars).I'm sure in time there will be an expanded book as they've left out a handful of background characters (excluded from the book are some racers like LEAK LESS and NITROADE) and they're missing some of the names on a few as well (the book lists Chief No Stall, not Roman Dunes which is his name). Despite the incomplete nature of the book, this is the next best resource for CARS you can currently buy, following the BluRay of the movie itself.And just to be clear, this IS a children's book so don't expect hardcore Star Wars type bios and stats pages. So if you or your kid is more interested in reading about the different cars than about Radiator Springs or the Piston Cup, this is the book to get. If the photos on the page doesn't help, pick up the book at the book store and give it a careful glance if this is the book to add to your collection.

This is the perfect book for any cars fan. I have a three year old boy that destroys these books because he looks through them so much. He likes to look at every car and ask me his name.. this goes on and on until we go through every car in the book. Takes forever!! ...then when we finish the book, he starts over!! ahahah high quality hard cover book. worth every penny!!

This book is for real fans.Inside you will find the description of most cars you watched in the movie. Sadly, it's missing the four cars from the highway at night gang (boost, wingo, dj and snot-rod).All in all, the quality of the book is excellent, hard cover, very fine pictures and a full poster.

This is such an amazing encyclopedia of characters from both the Cars and Cars 2 Disney Pixar movies. My 3 year old is currently obsessed with all things Lightning McQueen. He was constantly asking us the names of obscure movie characters that he would see in the background of a book or in the movie. Each time we'd have to Google one, then we'd forget it by the next week when he'd ask again. Now, with this book, the answers are easily accessible - and he can even look them up himself!! Ever since we gave him this book he's wanted to look through it every night. He knows almost all the names by heart, and where each character is in the book. This has been such a huge huge hit.It says it comes with a poster, which is actually the book cover dust jacket. The front of the dust jacket is like a normal book, and the back is the poster. I've included a picture so you can see exactly what the poster looks like. It's long and skinny and made of thick, glossy paper (similar to a normal poster).The pages inside each have 1 or 2 characters on them. Included is a picture, name, and short bio. There are so many cute stories about some of the characters you've never heard of. There was a lot of clever thinking that went into making this book. The book is arranged by groups - all of the Bad Guys are together, all of the World Grand Prix racers are together, all of the Radiator Springs gang is together, etc. There's also an alphabetical table of contents if you're looking for one specific car.This is an amazing, great quality book. I would buy it 100 times over given how much love it's gotten in our household. We like it so much I bought the Planes version too, and that's been a hit as well. Highly recommend!!!!

I got this at the library and one of my five year old twins started carrying it around everywhere he went, so I decided to buy it. He has now learned how to read numbers from 1-100 by practicing the numbers on all the race cars. He did start to get a little obsessed with all the obscure Piston Cup Race cars, so be prepared for that if your kid really gets into things like mine does. I'm sure if it's like all the other little phases, something else will fascinate him soon. Here's what he has to say about it: "I like it cause the race cars are cool and I love it cause it has pit crew guys."

We got this book for our 2-year-old. I wasn't sure if he'd be a little too young for it then, but he loved CARS so much that I went ahead and got it. It is a big "encyclopedia" type book of all the cars in the CARS movies. It lists each character by groups and tells some fun facts and story lines about each. So it really isn't a "storybook" for a 2-year-old. But he LOVED it! He loves the pictures and the fact that there are soooo many cars! He would read it with us all the time even at that age. Now he's 5, and he still loves it. Now he can read it himself and loves to go through each of the cars and write their names down. If you're not a child but are a CARS fan, this is a great book to have in your collection!I will say that I was surprised by some of the characters not in the book and some lesser characters that were, but overall it's a fantastic compilation and a lot of fun! (Ours also came with a poster!)
