My 4 year old son loves this book. He loves trucks. So, it is nice to have a truck book to read to him based off of a classic.

LOVE IT!!!

My 3 year old son absolutely adores this book. The storyline is similar to The Three Little Pigs but with rigs as the main characters. He loves all the smashing, bashing and crashing and wants the book read to him over and over again.

The Three Little Rigs Book

My 3 year old grandson and 2 year old grandaughter really love this book. It is great!

Little Truck Lover

My son received this book for his 3rd birthday. As most boys, my son loves cars, trucks, planes and trains so this was a perfect choice for him. He LOVES this book! We have been reading it every night for months now and I really enjoy reading it. Even my 5 year old daughter who is learning to read likes reading it to her brother. The pictures are cute and colorful. I plan to buy for all boy birthday's that come up this year. You won't be disappointed in this book.

Excellent book for little truck-lovers!

I found this book in the local toy store and gave it to my 2 year old son, who LOVES trucks. He already knew the tale of the 3 little pigs, so he was familiar with the storyline, but very intrigued that there was a "similar" tale of trucks. The text follows the traditional story, but uses 3 little rigs and a big bad wrecking ball instead. The illustrations are great too, making this book one of my son's favorites. I'm going to buy Gordon's other book, "The Ugly Truckling" now!
