Little Blue Truck

As a children’s book author and illustrator, “Little Blue Truck” for me, is a gem that effortlessly captivates young hearts with its whimsical narrative and enchanting illustrations. Alice Schertle’s storytelling is a delightful symphony of rhythm and rhyme, making it a joy to read aloud. The characters, especially the lovable Little Blue Truck, come alive through Jill McElmurry’s vibrant and expressive illustrations, creating a visual feast for young readers. The seamless integration of language and imagery makes this book a standout in the realm of children’s literature, as it not only entertains but also fosters early literacy skills.

I enjoyed reading this to my son! The animal sounds were fun to make and held his attention. The images were good, but the moral was the best part - be friendly to others and always lend a helping hand. Sometimes it’s good to slow down.

Great book for my child, my daughter loves the characters . She always falls asleep to the book when we read it

The combination of the simple and adorable rhyming verses with its delightful illustrations makes this a book that you’ll love reading to your kids more than once!

This is a delightful story with a cooperation message. The setting -objects and characters are all very appealing to younger children( 3-5 years) The illustrations are gorgeous. My three year old great niece was enthralled. I wish the story would have been a little longer.

My 19 mo old girl has enjoyed loves this book for several months! This is her favorite book and she has over 50 board books! There are several reasons why she likes it. She loves farm animals and trucks. I think she likes this book more than the other board books because it's one of the only board books that is actually a story with a plot, not just pictures of animals that say "moo". The rain turns the dirt to mud, the big yellow dump gets stuck and with the help of all the farm animals, Little Blue pushes the big truck out of the mud. At the end, all the animals get in the truck and ride off. She actually acts out the story with her toys. I need more books like this.

We love Little Blue's adventure. This was a fun morning read with my daughter. We discussed the animals, their sounds, and the beautiful illustration!

I have lost count how many times we have read this book and the many other Little Blue Trucks! Our toddler is obsessed and even reads along!
