My 20-month old daughter LOVES trucks and loves this book. I picked it up on a whim because it was on sale when she was a year old and it's been a favorite ever since. I suspect she would have loved trucks even without the book. (We had some construction going on near our park and even I had to admit those giant excavators are pretty awe-inspiring.) But the book is responsible for her being able to correctly identify the differences between a backhoe, wheeled excavator, and front-end loader. Her mom certainly couldn't have taught her. This book is also useful to ignorant parents of a truck-obsessed child. Who knew tractors had so many attachments? My husband was pretty impressed when we passed some road work in the car and I started calling out, "There's a paver, a scraper, a roller. Oh look, they have both a concrete crusher and a track excavator."

I stopped by here today to buy another copy of this book because our twin boys (23 months) fight over this book. We have a lot of books, but this is by far their favorite. They take it with them to the table, in the car and to bed. They love to say the names of the trucks. The book has pictures and names of the trucks. It really is a good book for kids who love big trucks.

I cannot say enough about how good this series of books is. We have all the titles that are avaiable in Australia and they are the most well-read books in our Children's library.

They are the perfect-sized books for your little one and a great way to get them interested in learning to love books. The pages are strong and sturdy and will take any amount of page turning your little one can dish out.

The best thing about these books is the wonderful photography of each item - clearly labeled with it's name. As you read this book over and over to your child it won't be long before they are the ones pointing to the picture and telling you what it is.

I've read this series of books (over and over)to my children since they were about 6 months old. The eldest (now 4 and a half) still flicks through the books and has started to point things out and say the words to her little brother.

Highly recommended!

I LOVE THIS BOOK! I bought this book for my 2 yr old son for a stocking stuffer this past Christmas. I didn't realize I would love it so much. It is full of trucks of all types, and it also has the correct name of each one. My son loves trucks but called them all room rooms, as in the noise. Well with this book he now calls them by name. A tractors is now a tractor and not a room room!! I am so excited. I can't wait to buy the whole collect of "My First Books"! I really feel it will help my son learn the correct names for the objects he sees everyday.

This is my sons favorite book...as a matter of fact I just had to order another one because the first one is falling apart due to overuse.I got him this book for Xmas and he makes me read it to him at least 20 times a day!If Im not reading it...he's flipping through the pages looking at the pictures.He even takes it to bed with him.

We borrowed this book from the library and it quickly became obvious that we would have to buy a copy. It's packed full of just about every kind of truck you can imagine.

My son just turned two, and he has recently become fascinated with trucks. This book helps him put names with each truck, and he gets so excited when we see the trucks he has read about in his new book! This is the first book he asks for in the morning, and the last one he reads at night. He really loves it!

I bought this book for my son(2 yrs) and with in an hour he learnt about 25 names of trucks.Now he says all the names with ease.This book is cute.

My 18 month old nephew loves this book and looks at it all day long. He sleeps with it and takes it with him on trips. It's getting worn out from all the use, and we'll need to buy him a fresh copy of it soon.

I had to laugh when reading the first review because I am also buying a second copy of this book. Right now the book is hidden because I am tired of all the fighting over it!
