National Geographic Readers: Trucks

Who can resist trucks? They're loud. They're complicated. They have wheels twice as tall as your dad. Trucks! has many cool images of the trucks we know and love. There are also curiosities like the $3 million mining truck that's "like driving a house." This level 1 text is revved up with sound words and images to steer young readers on the road to reading success.
