But there it was in the book section of the local Target store. At first glance, Mater and the Little Tractors looks like any other Cars-themed beginning reader book, but it soon becomes clear that the book tells the backstory of Mater's Junkyard Jamboree in Cars Land.

All right, it's not Great Expectations, but it's certainly a fun way help teach children to read, and I think the youngest Cars fans in my family are going to get a kick out of this. I'd love to see more of the Imagineers' attraction back-stories immortalized as children's books; imagine your child learning to read with the Tiki Birds...or the Hitchhiking Ghosts...
What a fantastic idea about other attractions being turned into children's books. I'm actually surprised Disney hasn't thought of it. If for some reason those rides cease to exist, what collector items they would be!
