Ideal Reader
A preschool or early elementary child (ages 3-6) who is obsessed with vehicles, particularly large trucks. This is for the child who can identify a backhoe from a block away and wants to know the names and functions of every machine they see. They prefer factual information and realistic photos over illustrated stories.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed. The book is straightforward and can be read cold. Parents can be ready for follow-up questions or requests to find videos of the trucks in action. The parent's child points out every single truck on a car ride, asks endless "What's that one for?" questions, or spends hours playing with toy construction vehicles. The parent is looking for a book to channel and expand on this intense interest.
