The Little Blue Truck is a book about a friendly truck that has different animal friends that he passed by and says hello to everyone. Then a dumb truck comes through very rudely and gets stuck so the little truck helps him and the animals help the little blue truck.

It is available in Spanish and English.

Many pictures to support the book and English learners.

This book is appropriate for 2 - 3 year old's.

1. I would use a felt board with all the characters and involve the children by letting them add the pieces on the board.

2. Puppets would be a great support to keep children's attention and maybe slow the book down to better understand what is happening.

3. Letting them each have their own book in the language they are most comfortable with will support their learning.
