Booklist - 05/01/2022 What could be better than a truck? Two trucks, one on top of the other! That’s the basic premise of this colorful picture book, which features a new combination or two on each double-page spread. Usually, one is a tow truck. On the opening page, “Blue truck on red truck” refers to a small red tow truck lifting a small blue truck, while the facing page (“Red truck on blue truck”) shows a larger blue truck hauling the original red truck. The pattern varies a bit with lines such as, “Pig truck on big rig truck. / Fuel truck on cool truck.” Created with gouache and digital elements, the vibrant illustrations show a strong sense of color, composition, and child appeal. The text is brief enough to hold the attention of the youngest vehicle fans and varied enough to interest somewhat older ones, particularly since the book could be used for counting, identifying colors, or sorting by size. With eye-catching jacket art, this book will quickly find its audience. - Copyright 2022 Booklist.
