"Trucks bring ice cream.

Trucks bring blocks,

books and bulldozers,

Customer Reviews

Great for girls too!

My little girl loves this book, and her mama does too. It reads well, and if you are a parent who loves the open road, riding the rails, truck stops, honkey tonk, and that type of thing you might like the book too. We've had it out of the library for four months and its still a fave.

Trucks Roll! - RULES!

I watch my 2 1/2 year old grandson 4 days a week. He loves trucks and points them out to us whenever we are taking a walk or out for a drive. We encourage reading and have many books readily available so that we can read to him or he can read on his own. Our daily routine includes reading 2 or 3 books before going for his nap. Trucks Roll is one of his (and mine) favorite books! The book is written in short, melodic sentences that little children just love. It is a very colorful and fun book. I highly recommend this book.

Great for tuck lovers!

My 2 year-old son LOVES this book. The graphics are big, bold, and colorful. The language is engaging and fun. Any child who loves trucks will adore this book.

My son LOVES this book!

We originally checked it out from the library and that night my 2 year old son wanted to read Trucks Roll again and we didn't have it....NOT a good thing. This book is now a part of our home library and it is still the book he chooses every night. He loves the pictures and of course announcing over and over with me "Trucks ROLL!"

Perfect for a Boy

When I went to the library with my 2 y/o son, this was the first book he found and he would not let it go. When we got home I read it for him and he loved it. After about 3 days, he had memorized the entire book. And could flip through the pages and say exactly what was on the page. I couldn't return it back to the libary without him crying. So I ended up having to check it out about 3 more times after that. So needless to say this book is great for little boys.
