My child really loves all of the Donald Crews books we own. This one is especially fun because there are no words & we spend a fair amount of time on each page talking about what he sees & what we think is going on. Certain pages are his favorite to discuss & we spend several minutes looking at them with each reading. Use your imagination & have fun!

The book description is very deceptive. The description makes it sound as if the book shows all types of scenery as the Truck travels the U.S. I thought it would be a great book to help my youngster see a bit of America. But beware, most of the pages are ONLY close-ups of the side of the Truck and of road signs. Only 3 or 4 pages show scenery; very disappointing. I thought the book was so awful that I am returning it, paying the postage, and don't care if I lose money on the deal.

This book is masterful at telling a story with just the pictures. The illustrations are crisp and clean yet also richly detailed, and it's fascinating to watch how Crews moves the narrative along with just images (remember, it's mostly just vehicles and the surrounding city- or landscape). This has been such a favorite for my son that he has affectionately nicknamed it "Truck by Donald"!

This book is very popular in our house, getting my son to agree to story time (and thus the inevitable nap or bed time that follows) when he is in full fight mode. My two year old loves this book! I would give it five stars based on his love for it except for the fact that there are times that Mommy is not in the mood to be creative and make up her own story to it since it is strictly a picture book. Most of the time, it is not a problem, the pictures make the story easy to tell, but sometimes I am just not in the mood. However, my son adores this book and has learned how the pictures help tell the story as we discuss, for example, which way the truck will go when it reaches a fork in the road and how there is fog on the bridge. As a certified early childhood teacher, I know how important that skill is in learning how to read, so I love that about this book. All in all, this book is a wonderful addition to our home library.
