A truck-themed reassurance of parental love

Big Truck and Little Truck give the idea of unconditional parental love a construction-site vocabulary: spills, grease, cement, and other mishaps become the worries Little Truck voices. Their exchange is presented in simple rhyming text, with illustrations by Natasha Mollins, making the reassurance concrete through familiar truck imagery. The sturdy artcard pages and protective glossy coating are also part of the book’s design, suited to repeated handling. The central subject is a caregiver’s love that remains steady even when a child worries about making mistakes.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children who enjoy construction trucks and vehicle-themed picture books
  • Young children who appreciate rhyming text
  • Families seeking a story about parental reassurance and love

A heartwarming "I Love You" book for kids who love trucks.

Sometimes kids--and little trucks--need to be reassured of a parent's love. In I Love You, Little Truck, Big Truck loves Little Truck with a full heart--but Little Truck can't help but wonder. "Little Truck smiled, then it sank to a frown. / 'But what about times I might let you down? / Like when I spill oil or get grease on the rugs. / Even then, will you give me your kisses and hugs?" In a heartwarming exchange featuring favorite construction trucks, Big Truck shows how a parent's love overcomes oil spills, cement, and even the deepest of holes. Adorable illustrations from Natasha Mollins complement the simple, rhyming text to convey an endearing message that kids will want to hear--and feel--again and again.

Thick, sturdy artcard and a protective, glossy coating ensures the book will last for many more readings!
