Keep on Truckin': Monster Trucks by Mark Todd
MONSTER TRUCKS! MONSTER TRUCKS!
GREEN GARGLING GARBAGE TRUCKS.
EATING AND CRUNCHING,
MUNCHING AND SLURPING,
JUST DON'T BE AROUND
WHEN THIS GUY STARTS BURPING.
Yep. Stink Brothers Garbage Company is on the move, taking on all comers and giving off a powerful parfum de refuse. But in the busy world of big vehicles, Stinky has plenty of cohorts and helpers in construction and haulage. There's Dump Truck Chuck, who tipples tons of dirt, the determined Dozer who snarls and scrapes with his shovel blade, and Suds the Sanitation Department Street Sweeper who scrubs the streets before the morning rush.
Although their names--Mr. Moo Milk Truck, Big Red Firetruck, Mr. Salty the Snowplow, and Smoosh the Steam Roller--conjure up images of cozy Sherry Duskey Rinker-esque equipment bidding the construction site nighty-night, Mark Todd's Monster Trucks!
SLIME-SUCKING SWEEPER TRUCKS
SNORTING AND SCRUBBING
WITH A BIG BRISTLY BRUSH--
CLEANING THE STREETS
FOR THE 9 O'CLOCK RUSH.
Todd's new board-book edition of Monster Trucks!
