A lively and engaging Starters title for beginner readers from bestselling author Vivian French, with a friendly text and stylish two-colour illustrations. Buck and His Truck is part of Walker Starters, the wonderfully fun and friendly series for beginner readers. "Buck's truck is the BEST!" "Larry's lorry is the GREATEST!" Buck the truck-driver and Larry the lorry-driver are rivals. One day they are both asked to do the same job. Could they have more in common than they'd thought?
