The monster truck race is on in this frightfully delightful picture book. On a spooky speedway, Monster Trucks moan! Monster Trucks grumble! Monster Trucks groan!

"These monster trucks really are monsters, and their race is sure to get cheering children on the edges of their seats..monster-truck fans won't want to miss this Halloween showdown." -- Kirkus Reviews "Wragg creates some wicked vehicular hybrids...and eerie green skies and yellow moonlight set the stage for full-throttle Halloween fun." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "In the energetic rhyming text...the action never stops. Vivid colors and textures give the cartoony acrylic and digital illustrations a bold and lively (despite the undead) look." -- The Horn Book "Bright, bold illustrations bring characters like Zombie Truck, Frankentruck, and Werewolf Truck to life...with lots of movement in the text and on the pages, this is a quick seasonal storytime selection that is sure to be popular around Halloween. Monstrous fun!" -- School Library Journal
