Hush, little trucker, you're in luck.
Mama's gonna find your lost toy truck.
A new spin on the classic song "Hush, Little Baby," this truck-themed lullaby follows a mother and child as they discover different vehicles, from a bulldozer to a front-end loader. Kim Norman's gentle rhyming text, paired with Toshiki Nakamura's imaginative illustrations, makes this picture book a great option for bedtime read-alouds.
Prep those vocal cords and sing your scales, because this is a book that begs to be sung repeatedly and with gusto. * Kirkus Reviews *
Kim Norman, the author of more than 20 childrens books including One-osaurus, Two-osaurus, Puddle Pug, and The Ghosts Went Floating, is still a little jealous of her sister Tanya, who once won a new truck in a national contest. Calling herself a Bedtime Reading Booster, Norman has visited hundreds of schools around the United States. She loves art, music, and life with her husband and two pug-mix dogs in a little house in Virginia shaded by big pecan trees. Toshiki Nakamura grew up surrounded by trucks during his childhood since both his father and grandfather were civil engineers. Nakamura is an artist and character designer in both animation and illustration. He has worked for studios such as Netflix Animation, HouseSpecial, and DreamWorks TV. He is currently based in Kanagawa, Japan.
