I have two young boys and they love this book! (Though perhaps it's how I read it.) The first page says: "The garbage truck goes 'BURBABA BURBABA BURBABA SCREECH! BEEP-BEEP-BEEP CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH'" and that first page got my younger son's attention! He's not much interested in sitting and reading, but he does love sensory input like lights and noises and textures and moving things. So I read through the whole book and both boys were laughing delightedly at the noises Mommy was making while reading a book. They call it "the noisy book" now, and after we put them to bed I will hear my older boy (who loves to read) "reading" the book from memory and making all the noises. It's certainly not a fancy book, but Steve Light's spellings are very good at approximating the noises of different large trucks. You can have a lot of fun with this book and your kids.
Great Toddler Book!
