Hush, Little Trucker

Soothe truck-loving toddlers off to sleep with Hush, Little Trucker, a vehicle-themed bedtime board book.

Hush, little trucker, you’re in luck.
Mama’s gonna find your lost toy truck.

A new spin on the classic song “Hush, Little Baby,” this truck-themed lullaby follows a mother and child as they discover different vehicles, including a tow truck, jeep, forklift, dump truck, backhoe, concrete mixer, bulldozer, flatbed truck, front-end loader, and crane.

Kim Norman’s gentle rhyming text, paired with Toshiki Nakamura’s imaginative color illustrations, makes this board book a great option for bedtime read alouds.

“Prep those vocal cords and sing your scales, because this is a book that begs to be sung repeatedly and with gusto.” —Kirkus Reviews

Kim Norman, the author of more than 20 children’s books, is still a little jealous of her sister Tanya, who once won a new truck in a national contest. Calling herself a Bedtime Reading Booster, Norman has visited hundreds of schools around the United States. She loves art, music, and life with her husband and two pug-mix dogs in a little house in Virginia shaded by big pecan trees.
Toshiki Nakamura grew up surrounded by trucks since both his father and grandfather were civil engineers. Nakamura is an artist and character designer in both animation and illustration. He has worked for studios such as Netflix Animation, HouseSpecial, and DreamWorks TV. He is currently based in Kanagawa, Japan.
