    <![CDATA[THAT SQUARE-JAWED CAN-DO action toy, Traction Man, is back in another hilarious adventure. The little boy, Traction Man, and his brave pet, Scrubbing Brush, are inseparable&#8212;until the boy&#8217;s father throws the &#8220;unhygenic&#8221; Scrubbing Brush in the trash and replaces it with a &#8220;real&#8221; toy, the battery-operated TurboDog. It bleeps, speaks, and squeaks&#8212;but is not very smart. So Traction Man, wearing his airtight Astro-suit and armed with a bottle of SuperStrong Germo, enters the trash bin and rescues Scrubbing Brush from the Evil Bin Things (pizza crusts, spaghetti, and potato peels with eyes and mouths that hiss &#8220;Stay with us&#8221;). The Battle of the Bin is not to be missed&#8212;nor is the ignominious demise of TurboDog! With this satisfying sequel, Mini Grey has scored another smashing victory for imaginative play.<br/><br/><br/><em>From the Hardcover edition.</em>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Just as cute as traction man is here!  My students love this comic style book.  (Watch out for the naked barbies!)  In this story, traction man has a new friend, turbodog, but he can not replace scrub brush.  Hilarious and creative!  Typical Mini Grey style!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Not as great as the first, but still very humorous and fun. It was great to be with Traction Man for further adventures. I'm very glad Scrubbing Brush was not gone forever. I would have been quite upset. And I couldn't help but be quite taken by the coins.]]></body>

    <![CDATA[THAT SQUARE-JAWED CAN-DO action toy, Traction Man, is back in another hilarious adventure. The little boy, Traction Man, and his brave pet, Scrubbing Brush, are inseparable&#8212;until the boy&#8217;s father throws the &#8220;unhygenic&#8221; Scrubbing Brush in the trash and replaces it with a &#8220;real&#8221; toy, the battery-operated TurboDog. It bleeps, speaks, and squeaks&#8212;but is not very smart. So Traction Man, wearing his airtight Astro-suit and armed with a bottle of SuperStrong Germo, enters the trash bin and rescues Scrubbing Brush from the Evil Bin Things (pizza crusts, spaghetti, and potato peels with eyes and mouths that hiss &#8220;Stay with us&#8221;). The Battle of the Bin is not to be missed&#8212;nor is the ignominious demise of TurboDog! With this satisfying sequel, Mini Grey has scored another smashing victory for imaginative play.<br/><br/><br/><em>From the Hardcover edition.</em>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Warning: Traction Man Meets Turbo Dog is a children's picture book! Read it together with the first book, Traction Man Is Here! These books are really funny in a tongue-in-cheek way, Toy Story for a new generation. Traction Man and his faithful pet, Scrubbing Brush, are off on their usual adventures...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/34188491">more...</a>]]></body>
