Bookroo's summary

Ever dreamed of having a pet truck? Dive into this whimsical guide where a young boy shares secrets to tracking, catching, and training your own vehicle companion. From monster trucks in parking lots to ice-cream trucks on the move, learn to identify and lure the perfect truck for your home. With tips on habitats and tire tracks, embark on a delightful journey to find a loyal truck humming happily by your side. Will you choose the right truck and make it your new best friend?

From the publisher

Want a pet truck? Rumble up to this handy guidebook offering everything you need to know. Bone up on habitat: monster trucks like abandoned parking lots; moving trucks live in busy neighborhoods; ice-cream trucks and snowplows migrate in the winter. Pick the right breed for your home (a car transporter in a small apartment would not be a wise choice). Learn to identify your truck by its tire tracks, and soon, with the lure of some orange cones, you’ll have a loyal vehicle following you home, a happy hum under its hood. With an eighteen-wheeler-size nod to pet-care guides, Jason Carter Eaton and John Rocco put young readers in the driver’s seat for a road trip to truck-dreamer bliss.
