What's on our Bookshelf? Truck by Donald Crews



There is nothing that excites my son more than finding a book that captures his attention with abandon.  Truck is that book right now!  The most wonderful thing about this book is that it has no words and so it is open ended for great discussion.  However, there are many signs and vehicles that make this story a great way to teach your child to tell a story.  We also learn about the different avenues of travel such as the tunnel, uphill, downhill, interchange and fog.  My son is learning to recognize signs in our world as we point them out because he has seen them so many times in this book.  This is definitely a boy book, but girls would benefit too!  Enjoy!
