Review

Who can resist the personification of all things mobile? Truck, Tractor, Digger, Rocket and Boat work hard during the day and are ready for bedtime at day's end. This rhyming story is perfect as a read-aloud and the expressive, colorful illustrations complement the text well. Little boys, in particular, will like this offering. Hopefully this tale will prompt those reluctant at bedtime to settle down more easily, perhaps with a favorite truck or other vehicle with which to snuggle.

Overall Book Score: very good
