REVIEWs:

Kirkus Reviews
"Klakowicz packs her debut with sound effects, giving it strong read-aloud potential. ... On the page, emphasized words are variously colored and capitalized, curving around and mimicking the truck’s kineticism. ... Lively, vigorous, and well suited to kids who adore cool moms and their vehicles."

Strength for Spouses Blog
"This adorable book is such a fantastic choice for children ages five and up. The colorful illustrations are surely to engage readers and the storyline allows ways to expand learning. Travel, geography, cars, parent-child relationships, and responsibility are all mini themes that educators could use to incorporate learning. I highly recommend this book for young readers and know they will enjoy it as much as I did."
