- Our dot-to-dot series displays a number line on the bottom of page for each puzzle.

...what a great idea the [Usborne] wind up books are and more importantly, how sturdy and efficient they are. I have had the train book for years... it always stayed on the tracks and provided hours of fun for the little ones who played with it.
