        The title of this book is really a joke rather than a
        fact.  The book is more like a celebration of toys and
        concepts that pre-schoolers are familiar with.  There are
        shapes, colors, and toys and much more to explore.  See if
        you can find all the items and you may even learn a thing or two
        along the way.
