by Hope Vestergaard (Author), David Slonim (Illustrator)

"Rising above the usual singsong name-checking, Vestergaard celebrates not only the jobs these machines perform but also their marvelous mechanics." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Sixteen boisterous, rhyming poems--each one highlighting the job and personality of a different vehicle, from a backhoe to an ambulance to a snowplow--introduce young children to their favorite trucks face-to-face. Cheerful illustrations show each one in action, digging (or dozing, or dumping) away. Each truck and big machine in these enticing rhyming poems is different, and little readers are invited to find a vehicle that's like them.
