Book Descriptions
for Supertruck by Stephen Savage
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
Bucket truck. Fire truck. Tow truck. Each of them goes about its important job in the city. But the garbage truck? “He just collects the trash.” When a blizzard hits, the first three trucks get stuck in the snow and can’t work. But the garbage truck becomes “Supertruck!” with the addition of a snowplow. Stylized illustrations showing cheerful, personified vehicles in bright colors combine with an appealing storyline (what’s not to love about a garbage truck superhero who remains anonymous in the end?), ensuring this will be a big hit among the toddler and preschool-age set. (Ages 2–5)
