My son loves this book - this book and the other Peter Sis book about Firetrucks. Great illustrations that keeps my son engaged and the topic is fabulous as he is infatuated with all things trucks or trains. :) I wish it also came in a board book version as he's sometimes hard on the pages. My son is 2 years old and while he does turn the pages fine - and so far, no rips - I just wish there was a sturdier version. :D
Mesmerizing Book for my 2-Year-Old Truck Lover
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
This simple story immerses my 2-year-old in it's clean pictures like no other book. He holds the book close and studies the differnt trucks (especially on the last page) like a little scientist. It's easy to understand, and the pictures tell a great story. Clearly Peter Sis knows how to make a great book for the toddler set.
We love it

I have 3 boys -all have *adored* this book from about one year old to two years old.
This one gets read everyday!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
It's amazingly simple. The colors are limited to three (black, white and gold) and on most pages there is only one truck. Each page features a different truck and the trucks get larger and larger as you progress through the book. The title truly says it all and it works! Our 17 month old son usually reads this book no less than four times a day and this is one book that I don't mind reading to him at least four times a day.
Clever, imaginative book on trucks
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This book tells the story of a little boy picking up his room and putting all his toy trucks away. As the trucks are put away, they are seen from the little boy's point of view. The trucks become larger on each page, and many different types of trucks are shown in simple, clear illustrations. My child realy enjoys this book, and I do too -- it is humorous and clever on many levels.
