First Line: "Who am I? I've got lights. Ten wide tires. No A.C., not me."
Industry Reviews
"What preschool-aged boy could resist the terrific title or the ten-wheeled force behind this anthropomorphized garbage truck narrator....[A] superb design...."
Kirkus Reviews (03/01/2002)
"Kate McMullan creates an automotive beast whose narrative style reeks of personality, and Jim McMullan's renderings are a perfect match, coaxing steely features into flexible, expressive shapes."
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books - Elizabeth Bush (06/01/2002)
"It will easily become a favorite of younger readers."
New York Times Book Review - Bruno Navasky (10/20/2002)
