This is a great read-aloud book ( )

My son is not at all interested in these illustrations, but he really likes the story, especially if read with many funny voices. I don't care for the illustrations either.

Be warned, the binding on this book *will* peel off. Have some tape to fix the problem. I took off a star over that.

Onto the book itself:

My little truck-obsessed niece (aged 2.5) adores this book. We follow a truck's day, and he tells us all about his various friends on the road and the jobs they do. The narration is similar in style to the "I Stink" series of books, but gentler - if you were turned off of those books because of the main character's attitude, you might prefer this one.

I do find that the story here is a little choppy. Your little one probably won't notice.

So long as you have masking tape at home for that pesky binding problem, I highly recommend this one. ( )
