Riley has a dump truck, a flatbed truck, a concrete mixer, and a little pickup truck at his lumberyard. When he tells them that they will help him build a children's park, everyone is excited. There's a lot of hard work to do, from hauling trash to pouring concrete. But once the work gets started, everyone but Little Yellow Truck is busy. Is there nothing he can do to help? As it turns out, Riley has just the right task for Little Yellow Truck. This picture-book offering from author Eve Bunting reinforces the message that even the smallest helper can make a big impact.

Review

Zimmer's vivid colors are as cheery as a day at the park, and little ones will love pointing out and talking about the different jobs and what they entail as well as their favorite playground equipment. A diverse group of children, including a boy in a wheelchair, run and play in the new park. --Celebrate Picture Books

About the Author

Eve Bunting was born in a little town in Ireland called Maghera and she was brought up in the tradition of storytelling. Her mother started a library in their house and there were always books available to read. Most were poetry, which Eve loved. She also loved ghost stories and adventure stories; actually stories of all kinds. So she grew up, got married, had three children, and became a storyteller herself. Now Eve lives in California and writes books that tell stories. She has written a lot of books, more than 250, and hopes to write many more. Because storytelling is what she does. And what she loves to do.

As a child, Kevin could not resist drawing on any available scrap of paper or napkin. Greatly encouraged by his parents to pursue his passion for illustration, he attended Kendall College of Art and Design in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Over the past 20 years his love for character development, dynamic compositions, and playing with color and light has come through on multiple products such as children’s books, magazines, and greeting cards, as well as an occasional napkin.

Nice but predictable helper truck story

Nice but predictable helper truck story
This is a nice book about how someone small can be a helper. My five year old and seven year old sons each gave it a thumbs up. The illustrations are very lovely and nicely done.I found it a bit predictable in terms of plot. The trucks are building a playground (as always) and the little truck gets the last job (as always) and then feels proud to be a helper (as always). Having said that, the illustrations were lovely, the text was nicely written even if predictable, and most importantly my children really liked the book.It’s a good, solid book. It would be great for a small child who likes trucks and struggles with helping (either feeling like they are too small to help or not wanting to help).I gave it five stars because my kids liked it so much. Left to my own devices, I might have given four stars because I felt it was too predictable.I received this book for free from the publisher. All the opinions expressed are my own (or my sons’).

We originally got this book from the library, and after reading it my grandson (who loves trucks) pronounced it to be "a good book." I purchased a copy for our home library for when he visits.

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2019
Little Yellow Truck has been a welcome addition to our reading rotation full of stories about trucks and all things machines. The story is about all the various trucks at Riley’s Lumberyard who get to help build a new children’s park in town. Little Yellow is so eager to help but the big jobs keep going to the other trucks. Finally, Little Yellow gets to help bring back all the plants and flowers to make the finished park beautiful. Every truck has a job to do to make the finished product.
