I'm a Big Rig!

A fun, rhyming book about friendship and kindness, featuring a transport truck trying to get to its destination―despite all the other traffic on the road, for fans of Little Blue Truck.

I'm a big rig, the biggest on the road,
and I'm heading to the Island with a big, important load

Get out of the way! The biggest and fastest truck on the road has places to be. Big Rig barrells down the highway, zooming past a pickup truck, rusty tow truck, and yellow snowplow. But when the speeding rig runs out of gas at the top of a mountain, how will it ever get unstuck and finish its journey? Luckily, three new friends soon arrive to lend a hand, and Big Rig realizes a little kindness can go a long way.

With rambunctious, read-aloud text by Nancy Cohen, author of the popular Here Babies, There Babies series, and colourful, engaging illustrations from artist Claire Manning, I'm A Big Rig! will appeal to young truck fans everywhere.
