This out of print book was a missed gem. Purchased it used (very good condition) and received it today. Each set of 2 pages features a big machine and the name of that machine. I'm afraid it's just bad timing for our little truck enthusiast. Emerson has reached an age where he enjoys a little more story in his book. The imagery is no longer enough. It is a wonderful thing to witness. This book would have been great about 6-12 months ago. It will still go into the Barton permanent collection.
