We got this book on DVD. My 3 year old now <i>sings<i> the book all the time. The first time he saw a garbage truck, he wanted to run out and say, "Hello!" to "Mr. Gillie." It's a very cute, entertaining children's read. It also made him pay more attention to where he thre his trash - very nice bonus!

I was recently in Top Ten toys and bonded with a dad pointing out a garbage truck to his son by referencing this book's main character, Mr. Gilly! I am so the parent of a boy--not a new revelation, but true.

recommends it for:
Anyone who likes to watch garbage collectors.
I thought this would be about garbage trucks but it was actually about the guy who drives the truck and all the places where he finds trash to put into his truck. Pretty good book and fun refrain.

My youngest son LOVES this book. We read it every night at least twice. The repetitive nature of the book makes it easy for little ones to follow along and participate in reading.

This is a fine book. It's funny that it's called "Trashy Town". That makes me think of a town full of whores and tarted up teenagers cussing and chewing gum!

Mr. Gilly, the trash collector, goes all around town filling up his garbage truck. Simple, yet colorful illustrations.

Another great trash book with a different flavor! Great repeating chorus with actions kids can do in storytime.
