    <body><![CDATA[Jack Truck and Dump Truck Dan are best friends. They like to smash and crash everywhere they go. Sometimes their smashing is helpful, sometimes the crashes just makes a mess. They are followed by a very large voice; fold out page shows just how large. Colorful and bright illustrations.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This is a fabulous book for boys. The fact I had a patron come in and complain that it tought kids to be bad (he got on a major soap box wanting it removed from the shelves) may effect my opinion of it.  I think it was very funny and really was in a little boys language.  Ages 3+]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[The boys love this book.  The rhythm is pretty good, and the character art is great -- really expressive vehicles.  The plot is kind of loose, and the value of their behaviour is kind of nebulous (is their smashing and crashing helping or obnoxious?), but it's pretty fun.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I'm really excited about this series.  I mean, how can you go wrong with Jon Scieszka and David Shannon (and 2 other guys who I don't know about)?
