Review

Big Rigs on the Go is a good introduction to non-fiction for the younger set. Preschool children and early readers will enjoy the large colorful photos and equally bold and simple text. Parts of the semi truck are discussed and labeled for easy identification and there is a basic index completing the package. All readers will appreciate the bold colors and large encircled page numbers. There may not be much content in this book but it will hold the attention of transportation lovers. The inclusion of female drivers is a plus. Early researchers are sure to ask for the three titles listed in the Read More section.

This reader has always said there can never be enough truck books. I recommend this for all public libraries who share that belief. The cost of the library bound edition may well be prohibitive for small libraries and classroom collections but a paper copy may be considered.

Overall Book Score: good
