Celebrates a child's love for a variety of trucks, from fire engines to cement mixers to ice cream trucks.

Graphically appealing two-colour illustrations pair perfectly with a spare, rhythmic ode to beloved trucks of all kinds—from fire trucks to dump trucks to ice cream trucks, the sweetest trucks of all—and to the kid who loves and collects them. Love Is a Truck follows Love Is a Tutu (our ballet-inspired ode to tutus and toe shoes) in our Love Is series.

A smaller square format with thick, sturdy pages makes these little picture books perfect for young readers, ages 2-6, and for reading aloud again and again.
