I Am a Garbage Truck

My grandsons LOVE this book!!

This book is a favorite in our house! My son asks to read it everyday. The quality of the book is great and the pictures are clear!

I bought this book for my grandson who wakes up every Monday making a noise that he thinks sounds like the garbage truck. We wait every Monday for the garbage trucks to come and he loves to see them. Some even beep at him now. So, when I saw this book, I thought it might be perfect for him. The reviews made me a little unsure but it was the best I could find for his age range. He really loves it. When he got it, he was about 15 months old and he played with it more as a toy truck that he would drive around. Now at 18 months, he is more interested in the pictures and having me read the book or tell him about what is happening in the pictures. It is very sturdy and a perfect size for toddlers. The story line is about all you need for a one year old. Most of the trucks on our street pick up the cans and this book does not depict that, but the other day I think they were picking up yard clippings and when the truck came they loaded the contents of the garbage can into the truck by hand just like in the book. I am a retired early childhood educator, so when I saw it was a Scholastic book, I knew i probably would not be disappointed. This has been an addition to his library that he enjoys very much.

The book is designed as a trash truck. Very short, only a few pages but you can teach toddlers about recycling .This Board book is sturdy, and my littles read it and look at it everyday . Very cute

My two year old grandson loves to watch the garbage truck come to our house. He gets excited to see this book and hear the story. Very cute shape/look of the book. He also loves the fire truck shaped book.

Ok

Got this book for my grandson for Christmas. Unfortunately this was one of the first gifts he opened and wanted nothing to do with his other gifts. He is 2.5 yrs old and asks me to read it everytime he is over.
