Description

"A new twist on a classic story and song, this book is just pure fun." -- School Library Journal

Old MacDonald has some new friends on the farm: Old MacDonald had a farm E-I-E-I-O. And on that farm he had a...TRUCK?! With a DIG DIG here and a SCOOP SCOOP there, this classic folk song just got revved up! Beloved machines--the excavator, dump truck, bulldozer, and more--will have vehicle enthusiasts of all ages reading and singing along.

- With colorful, fun illustrations, and subtle themes of gender equality, both parents and kids will enjoy this story over and over again
- Ideal for family and elementary school story time
- Steve Goetz was inspired to write his debut picture book, Old MacDonald Had a Truck, after his son began to sing "Old MacDonald Had a Farm" with alternative lyrics

Fans of Old MacDonald Had a Boat and Old MacDonald's Things That Go will love this entertaining read (and sing-aloud book) with a surprise ending.

Recommended for children ages 4-6 years to enjoy any time of day.

- Perfect family read aloud book
- For early and emergent readers in Preschool through Grade 1
