My Truck Is Stuck! | |
From Publishers Weekly
How many engines does it take to get a pothole-ambushed dump truck unstuck? Readers travel through a stretch of desert road with canines at the wheel before arriving at a shaggy dog of an answer. The pooch driver flags down four vehicles in succession (all driven by various breeds) in hopes of getting a hand (or paw) to "make my stuck truck go." But even with the five vehicles tied together and gunning in unison, the result is a bust: "Lug and lurch. Tug and tow./ 5 engines roar./ The truck won't go." Kirk's illustrations create a subplot: the same culprits (gophers) who dig the hole in which the truck gets stuck also make off with its load (a truckbed full of bones), bit by bit, spread by spread. When Mr. Mechanic shows up with his tow truck, everyone soon heads on their way-though the newly freed truck carries a dramatically lighter load. The formulaic narrative and stark landscape may not have as much of the magical pull as the team's first joint effort, Chugga-Chugga Choo-Choo, but this year's model still offers plenty. Lewis gets impressive aural mileage from his simple rhymes, while Kirk soups up his streamlined oil paintings with comic nuance. The dog characterizations are a stitch, and youngsters will enjoy the subtle jokes (a moving van's motto is "Ruff & Reddy," with a red bulldog mascot) along the way. A load of fun. Ages 2-5.

PreSchool-K-In this rhyming tale, two dogs in baseball caps and overalls haul a load of bones in their dump truck. They haven't gone very far before their wheel hits an enormous pothole. "Rotten luck. Can't go!/My truck is stuck," laments the driver. The two canines run after passersby, yelling: "Help!/Please help!/Does anyone know/how to make/my stuck truck go?" Some counting practice slips in as a series of progressively larger vehicles all try to "heft and haul," "tug and tow," "drag and draw" the truck out of the hole, but to no avail. Then, Mr. Mechanic shows up in his tow truck. The bright, full-page artwork, done with oil paint over sand and modeling paste on masonite, is full of humorous detail. The visuals will draw children in to the story, as they realize that unbeknownst to the drivers, a group of prairie dogs has made off with their load. This entertaining choice will please young truck lovers, and is sure to produce lots of laughs at storyhour. Melinda Piehler, North Tonawanda Public Library, NY

From Booklist
PreS-K. The author and artist who produced Chugga-Chugga Choo-Choo (1999) turn to dump trucks, a topic as fascinating for tykes as locomotives. This book rhymes, it counts, and it shows a big, red dump truck (license plate: Bonz-4U), driven by two dogs and carrying a cargo of bones, traveling across a desert landscape where the only inhabitants are prairie dogs peeking out of a gigantic pot hole in the middle of the road. When the truck gets stuck in the hole, the dogs seek help. A series of would-be rescuers, including a car, a Ruff and Reddy moving van, and a bus, try towing the dump truck out. The drama unfolds on double-page spreads made sunny and funny with vibrant oil paints. A neat subplot follows the prairie dogs as they sneak more and more bones off the truck, until, finally, the truck is successfully towed away, completely empty of its cargo. Great fun.

还不错，就是书很小，比手掌大一些些
要是配有CD或DVD就好了
很有趣的一本书，语言押韵，孩子看了很久
This is a vibrant book about a truck that gets stuck in the road and several cars come along to help push it out with a little sense of humor thrown in for good measure. I love the art in this is very attractive, they really used bright colors that are very appealing. The story is easily and quickly read. The rhyming has a nice cadence for the reader and my son enjoys when we read this one. The end is pretty funny because during the process of getting the truck full of dog bones unstuck, the dogs in the area steal them all by the time the tow truck comes. I definitely enjoy the sense of humor.
My biggest issue with this book is that the storyline is very similar to The Little Blue Truck, and that book does it better with lots of animals and a positive message about being kind to others all while rhyming and adding animal sounds. This book just has some counting and rhyming. I'm not saying that they are the same book, but the storylines are similar enough for comparison.
Overall a good book, it just doesn't compare as well when you have The Little Blue Truck. We much prefer Chugga Chugga Choo Choo from the same author. The humor in this one does set is apart enough to make it worth having, it just doesn't get read as often.
This has quickly become my almost 3 year old son's favorite book. To say he is obsessed with trucks is an understatement! We read it (multiple times) every night before bed to the point where he has it memorized! The best part about this book - he loves to talk about all the different trucks and name them off. And he loves to announce how he's counting as he reads it.
This is a super cute story about a truck that gets stuck in a hole. It has counting as the cars pile up trying to help, and has a very cute ending where the chipmunks or ground hogs or whatever they are steal all the bones out of the truck. My daughter thinks they are squirrels, since she is obsessed with them coming over to steal her crackers, so this has become one of her favorites that she asks for all the time. Great book!
This book is so wonderful! My 2.5 year old son requests for this book nightly - and then asks for me to read it again! Not only does the story and the words flow really well but the pictures it self tells more than the storyline. My sons favorite part is pointing out that all the bones were stolen by the gophers throughout the book. I would highly recommend this book for any truck lovers.
I ordered the book based on recommendations found here. My grandson loves to be read to and at 2 1/2, loves trucks. He has by now memorized parts of the book and speaks them out loud as he's being read to. We read this book over and over. To me, that is a very high recommendation! Personally, I found some of the phrasing a bit awkward at first. I do love the illustrations and the little back story of the prairie dogs creating the hole for the truck and then running away with the bones (which he did not pick up). The illustrations are bright and colorful and the rhyming holds the attention.
