Let’s Go!

Three different animal friends set out for Elephant’s Old Junk Tree to find a broken part for their truck. They have an adventure getting together for the trip, and going there. But the best thing is when they arrive. The junk tree provides lots of exploring fun, including a chance to get very dirty, but not the part they came for—or does it?

Despite each of the animals having distinct personalities, they are all able to be friends, and have lots of fun with each other. In the end, working together provides what they need.

Little ones through first grade will like this over-sized, hard-backed, five-star picture book. The author, who is also the illustrator, provides intricate drawings about each of the animal’s homes, the road trip, and the Junk Tree. Children who enjoy detailed or mechanical things will be delighted with this imaginative tale.

Candlewick Publishers has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, Road Trip, for the purpose of review. ( )
