The Happy Little Garbage Truck, Hardback Book

The Happy Little Garbage Truck Hardback

Illustrated by Steve Ferchaud

Part of the The Happy Little Garbage Truck series

Hardback

Description

The Happy Little Garbage Truck is the first book in a series of social skills and literacy-based picture books.  The program was created for primary grade students (ages 3-8).  This first book introduces its main character and explores the topic of self-esteem.  The little truck loves cleaning and doing a good job in his little community. However, as the little community grows into a big city, the truck is out-sized by newer, bigger trucks that are able to carry larger loads.  The little truck becomes sad when it is placed in a garage, unable to do the work he loves so much.  However, one day, a friendly man, who has been observing the little truck at work, discovers it in the garage.  He has been in search of a small truck for his small community.  He selects the little garbage truck and takes him back to his community, where they work happily ever after keeping the neighborhoods tidy and clean.  Future titles will address other social skills (following directions, impulse control, managing behaviors and taking responsibility).
