From the Publisher:
When Blue the pickup truck gets stuck in the mud after helping to push a dump truck out of the muck, his farm animal friends do whatever it takes to get their pal back on solid ground.When Blue the pickup truck gets stuck in the mud after helping to push a dump truck out of the muck, his farm animal friends do whatever it takes to get their pal back on solid ground. Beep! Beep! Beep! Meet Blue. A muddy country road is no match for this little pick up--that is, until he gets stuck while pushing a dump truck out of the muck. Luckily, Blue has made a pack of farm animal friends along his route. And they're willing to whatever it takes to get their pal back on the road. Filled with truck sounds and animals noises, here is a rollicking homage to the power of friendship and the rewards of helping others. |
Annotation:
A pleasant, mannerly truck named Blue enjoys toddling through the countryside, chatting with all the animals. But when a big, mean truck--who won't give anyone the time of day--gets stuck, Blue comes to the rescue. A tidy lesson in generosity and neighborliness, this picture book is accompanied by bright and lively illustrations.

Praise
"Schertle's...rhyming stanzas are succinct, and she gives readers plenty of opportunities to chime in with animal and vehicle noises...McElmurry's...gouaches recall the heyday of Golden Books in their combination of vividness, naiveté and sweetness, and her rich palette achieves verisimilitude that is no less satisfying for being nostalgic."

"The compact rhyming lines have an appealing laconic folksiness, and the various barnyard and automotive utterances add to the story's performance value."
