I purchased this book for my nephew, whom is 2 years old. He wil not put it down. He carries it everywhere he goes. If you have a two year old in your life, than I highly recommend this book. It will be a big hit.

He can't go 1 day without picking up this book. He is 2 years old and he absolutely loves it. He has all the equipment memorized and LOVES the pictures.

My son loves this book! He got it when he was two and was soon surprising everyone with his vast vocabulary relating to farm machines, construction equipment, etc... We were soon scouting the roadsides for construction sites so we could identify the machines while they worked. I never thought I would know so much about heavy equipment. Well, low and behold I now have a two-year-old girl and she is just as excited about this book as her brother still is. I guess it's partly related to having an older brother that she idolizes but she can identify most of the machines in the book also. There are questions at the bottom of each page that you can use and expand upon to talk with your children about the pictures (since this is a picture book not a story book) We have added MY BIG ANIMAL BOOK and MY BIG RESCUE HERO BOOK to our library but MY BIG TRUCK BOOK still remains the favorite.

As stated by the previous reviewer, this book does have quite a few errors in the description of the equipment pictured. Yes, definitely a disk and a plow are two different things but I think that the author may have used plow in an attempt to describe what a disk does (sorta but not really). Although not accurate, the book is very interesting but definitely needs to be republished with the corrections. City folks need to know the proper names for all the farm equipment listed. It's very interesting and you just never know when you'll need to know stuff like that. Otherwise, it's a great book and very interesting to read - my son loves it but I also made the corrections! As a published writer myself, I find it very disappointing that the publisher was in too much of a hurry to sufficiently and properly edit the book. Might need a new editing staff there!

My three year old son received this book as a gift with mere excitement, only to be devastated. While the pictures are bold and bright the context (name of the pictures) are completely false! Even my three year old knows that a disk (farm equipment picture) is not a Plow. Come on Roger Priddy do you and your high priced publishing firm not do any research before writing your books? It is obvious that this author, Roger Priddy, is more concerned with making money while teaching children wrong information. This picture book contains 40 photographs with name depiction and of the 40 pictures 11 are named incorrectly! There is better children's literature out there, this guy is a joke!
