Truckery Rhymes
Pete Loader, Dan Dumper, Rescue Rita, Monster Max and the rest of the Trucktown gang reunite to star in the most chomping, stomping collection of poetry you’ll ever see. Three cheers for Jon Scieszka as he kicks 22 beloved nursery rhymes into high gear with his rip-roaringly fun collection of truckery rhymes. If you love anything and everything with wheels, if you love a smashing good time and read-aloud excitement, then you’ll love these poems. See how three loud trucks ZOOM in a revved up version of “Three Blind Mice.” Then, “Swing Around with Rosie,” Wrecker Rosie, that is, as she smashes and bashes until everything around her falls down. And that’s just for starters. Talk about poetry in extreme motion! (Ages 2-4)

My 4 yr old son (and I) love this book. It is so creative and fun. He insists on hearing it every night and had it memorized after about a week.

My son is two years old and he absolutely LOVES this book! This book follows some of the layouts of rhymes I used to hear when I was little but instead they make them even better because they use all different kinds of trucks in place of "Jack and Jill" or "Humpty Dumpty" and make the rhymes more interesting to my son who loves trucks. He even brought this book to school (daycare)to share with his class and the teacher loved it as well. She loved the verbage this book uses and said all the kids enjoyed it and asked her to read it again and again =)

We have several Trucktown books and the kids ask for them to be read at naptime. Truckery Rhymes is their new favorite!

I ordered this book for my daughter, because I hate having all "girly" books. She loves the rhymes, and ut has quickly become one of her favorite bedtimes books.

i ordered this book because my son loves trucks and construction equipment. Both my son and daughter love this book, they are 2 and 3. My son knows almost all the words. We joke that he'll say these rhymes in school instead of the real nursery rhymes, but that's alright these ones are great.
