Overview / 简介: |
| Monkey Truck is a truck with a mission. He’s on the lookout for all sorts of jungle bungles -- there are chameleons to rescue before they are squashed, snakes to untangle, and hippos to pull free. And look out for that TSUNAMI! This playful picture book, with its chant-along language and plucky pictures, is perfect for little ones who like trucks and animals (probably the two most popular toddler topics). The paper-over-board format complete with heavy interior stock makes it an excellent choice for preschoolers. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| “My three-year-old loves Michael Slack's new picture book Monkey Truck…The artwork is great, colorful and elaborated with lots of details that are fun to talk about during storytime. All told, it's a darned fun storytime treat.” --Cory Doctorow, BoingBoing.com
“The bright, blocky and, above all, goofy digitally painted illustrations will grab attention, and Monkey Truck’s hooting mug (and tooting bottom) will keep the giggles flowing. Hope for more from this outrageous imagination.” --Kirkus Reviews
“Slack's choppy, rhyming text is propelled by sound effects and exclamations that enhance the book's read-aloud appeal…A slight yet spirited romp.” --Publishers Weekly
"Slack’s digitally rendered artwork is abundant with enjoyable texture and detail, however, and the jungle citizens are remarkably expressive.” --BCCB |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| Who would have thought? A truck that's actually a monkey! This monkey races through the jungle helping animals in distress, all the while munching his bananas and tooting "banana gas". Yeah, that's right. It might sound silly, but this is just the right brand of silly to get tons of laughs from preschoolers. The bright illustrations, the animals expressive faces, and lets face it just the mere sight of a truck that looks like a monkey all mark this as a great read aloud choice. There are plenty of sound effects, from Vroom Vroom, to OOH, EEH, OOH, AAH, to give any story reader plenty of time to ham it up.
The story is very short, but we do get to see Monkey Truck performing a couple of rescues. The rhyming text is a bit forced in a couple of places (tree/tsunami), but if you know it's coming, it doesn't detract from the humor or flow. This is an excellent choice for any preschool story time. A spirited reading will no doubt leave your audience yelling "Go Monkey Truck" long after you are done. Recommended. |
