You Can Name 100 Trucks!

A freezer truck, backhoe, grapple skidder, snowblower and a homely lunch truck are among the 100 rugged vehicles pictured on the die-cut pages of this oversize, dump truck-shaped board book. Each spread boasts a detailed drawing of a different truck-friendly locale, including a farm and its surrounding timberlands, a busy urban street and an airport runway replete with a platform loader, scissors truck and other specialized vehicles. Clearly labeled with their specific names, these big rigs are typically shown performing their jobs: the street sweeper sweeps, the tow truck tows a hapless car and the searchlight unit illuminates a burning building. An added attraction is the perky yellow van that appears in every spread. Truck-happy youngsters will give this a big ten-four. Ages 6 mos.-5 yrs. (Apr.)
