Food Trucks!

Description:

"Talk about your meals on wheels!" A convoy of comic food trucks is heading your way, serving up a mouthful of good eats with a side of humor and verse. They've got everything from french fries to falafel. You can sample sushi. Build a burger. Eat an empanada! There's a food truck flavor to satisfy every appetite in this comically illustrated picture book with rhyming text. A fun and informative homage to tasty treats and transportation. Additional fun facts on food history and nutrition are also peppered throughout the book.


Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 1–3—Fourteen mouth-watering specialties are featured in this book—with specialized trucks to serve them up: a hamburger truck, a falafel truck, a sushi truck, and more. Each one appears on a spread, with a large, detailed, digitally created picture of the vehicle; a free-verse description of the food; and assorted facts or definitions displayed in "clouds." There is a National Cheeseburger Day (September 18), ancient Romans are believed to be the first to make a cooked bread-and-cheese sandwich, and pretzels are likely the world's oldest snack, signifying oneness when eaten at weddings. Pick a favorite from breakfast through dinner with a diversity of dishes from various cultures: a side of taters, couscous, grilled provolone, chowder, chicken tikka, or a bean burrito. There's also "Sprinkles," the cupcake truck, and "Ice Queen," the mobile server of a popular cold treat. Readers will be inspired to write a poem or design a truck for a favorite food that's "rib-stickin', finger-lickin', or toothpick-needin'." This is an unusual addition with possibilities for creative expression.—Mary Elam, Learning Media Services, Plano ISD, TX

We love this book. It talks about lots of different types of foods in appealing rhymes, and it's fun to spot how all the food trucks are related to their service. The sushi truck has sushi rolls for tires, the kid thinks it's hilarious.

G. · August 27, 2014

This was a really fun book. It is jam-packed with colorful images and interesting facts about various types of food that it talks about. The illustrations of the food trucks are playful and bright and the book will teach kids about all kinds of different foods using witty poems that go along with the images.I found this book to be really fun and it did teach me a lot of random food facts that I would then yell across the room to my husband... so this book will be great for all ages and I think parents will enjoy it just as much as kids will.
