"A tasty treat on trucks and takeout."
—Kirkus
"There's plenty of personality in Todd's quirky fleet of trucks."

"What will draw in ravenous readers are Todd's pen-and-ink illustrations: busy, thick-lined depictions of each heavily themed vehicle, each popping with the kind of detail that will make kids wish there were toy versions."
