Great Book of Wooden Toys: 50 Easy Projects
From the book description:
Detailed and copiously illustrated, this in-depth handbook offers instruction for constructing more than 50 wooden toys designed to appeal to a child’s sense of imagination and playfulness. A brief introduction covers the basic techniques—gluing, sanding, and making wheels—and each project presents a meticulous diagram, a handy materials list, step-by-step instructions, and a photograph of the completed toy. Designs include stylized versions of a Model T car, a crane, and the Spirit of St. Louis airplane, as well as projects specifically for beginning woodworkers, such as pull-along trains and circus animals. Instructions for finishing and detailing ensure that the completed crafts will last for years.

I finally checked out the book from the library. The book is full of projects for making cars, airplanes, trucks, and locomotives. Just push toys and no hand crank creatures. If you're looking for automata items, you can pass this book.
