This joyful story and picture book about creativity and acceptance will touch little monsters and their families, especially those who love TRUCKS!
Everyone in Truckeroo
Must drive a truck—the children too.
The very day that kids are born
They're handed tailpipes, wheels, a horn
Meet the little monsters of Truckeroo! The kids all have trucks that suit their personalities—big trucks, small trucks, loud trucks, quiet trucks. Families help them build and care for their trucks. And they get to bring them to school!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Kirk (Oh So Brave Dragon) transports readers to the profoundly weird land of Truckeroo, whose citizens all drive custom-made trucks that correspond to their interests and personalities: "Before they make their diaper wet,/ they build a friend, a truck a pet!" The Truckeroovians themselves are multicolored, goblinlike creatures with glassy eyes, bulbous noses, and various tentacles, horns, and tails. Their grinning vehicles are just as, er, distinctive: one has a giant pig's head, another has a toilet for a seat, and a third is a snot-spewing dragon. As the day proceeds, the creatures move from a parking lot art class to a chaotic music lesson to snack time ("Is it already time to eat?/ Young monsters must have something sweet./ Their trucks however all require/ meals that explode or catch on fire"). Some readers will soak up the hallucinogenic strangeness; others will wonder what they just read. Ages 3 6.
