Toddler-PreS—This informational board book introduces six common work vehicles that youngsters are apt to see around town—a utility truck, a snowplow, a fire truck, an ambulance, a crane, and a broadcast truck—and the important jobs they perform. For each one, a scenario is suggested and a full-page rendering depicts the vehicle with the special attachments and features labeled. The text reads: "Whose truck is this? Do you know?" and the lift of a flap shows lineworkers, firefighters, highway maintenance workers, EMTs, crane operators, and a broadcast team in action. The bold, graphic cartoon style provides just the right amount of detail. Perfect for preschool community worker units and vehicle-loving kids.
