Thomas & Friends (My Busy Books) Board book – Picture Book, January 1, 2011

The trains are very little, the mat is sturdy paper but does fall apart over time, and the storage cases are closed with relatively flimsy plastic. Don’t expect this book/toy to hold up for a long time. That said, this keeps my son occupied, interacting, and happy when out and about. I’m pleased with the purchase overall.

These books are absolutely perfect! It's a book and a toy. Everything can be put away inside the book which can then go right on the shelf. Tons of variety. I have bought several for ages 2 to 7.

Great nephew loved it

My kids adore these busy books. The small toys are cute and allow for hours of fun. They are easy to pack up and take places although it would be better if they came with some kind of way to actually latch them shut so the toys don't fall out in route.My 2 year old loves trains and these are no exception. Although I don't recommend for small children who put things in their mouths to play with unsupervised. We take this one to out to eat, doctor appointments, and other places where he is easily bored. He switches back from the toys to the book and is entertained for a good duration.

Kids love these books with play figures and playmats. Honestly, they are the best value that your money can buy. I have purchased many.

Love this book and the little trains that came with it, they are perfect for travel. The mat is starting to rip after a few months, but it is nothing that some clear packing tape can't fix.

I bought this for my son's 2nd birthday. I love the sturdiness of the book, the interactive mat and play trains inside, and the story. He enjoys playing with this and I would definitely purchase other "Busy Books". I like that it has a compartment inside the book to keep all of the pieces safe too, although it needs to lay on its side so they don't fall out.

Bought this for our upcoming trip to keep my toddler busy. He is currently into trains, so I think he is going to be so excited with this book. I haven't open the whole thing yet, but so far is impressed with the train set it came with and a little mat that can all be folded into a book size. Will update once we are able to use it more

Great purchase. Lots of little trains included and the playmat is so cute with roads, tracks etc.

This book arrived in perfect condition, not a scratch or a bend in sight. Complete with 10 figurines and laminated playmat. Bought as gift so my almost-5-year-old grandson but I'm sure he will love it. These Busy Books make fantastic gifts.

Bought for my 3 year old Thomas fan and it's a hit! He loves playing with the engines and there's a good selection; the play mat is useful too. Good value for money.

Pour mes petits enfants qui l'avaient déjà mais ont perdu 2 des figurines. L'original (acheter en Angleterre) avait 12 figurines, celui ci seulement 10! Autrement très bien.

Item was damaged.little toys inside are missung.Little one loved it but unfortunately just item came not in good condition
