(upbeat music) - Hi, welcome back to "Story Time" with Tula Jane and Mother in the Wild. - Thank you, Tula Jane. And you know what is so special about this? This book has been requested for two new special friends. Today, we will be reading a very special book for a very special new friend. The book is called "Little Blue Truck" by Alice Schurtl, and this is a very special dedication for our new friend, Hamer. Hamer, thank you so much for listening and thank you for your patience. Are you ready? - Yeah, cozy. - Horn went beep engine purge. Friendliest sounds you've ever heard. "Little Blue Truck" came down the road. "Beep," said Blue, to a big green toad. Toad said, "Grog," and winked an eye, when "Little Blue Truck" went rolling by. Sheep said, "Baa," crow said, "Moo." "Wink," said a piggy. "Beep," said Blue. "Grog," said a chicken, and her chick said, "Beep." "Beep," said a horse. "Wink," said a duck. "Meep," said the friendly "Little Blue Truck." "Hunk," yelled a dumb truck, coming through. "I've big, important things to do. "I haven't got time to pass the day "with every duck along the way. "When the dump around a curve, he saw a puddle "and he tried to swerve into the mud, "rilled the big fat truck, "and his big, important wheels got stuck. "His heavy-duty dump truck tires were sunk down deep "in muck and mire. "Hunk," cried the dump, "Hunk," cried the dump, and he sounded scared, but nobody heard, and nobody cared. Then, into the mud, bump, bump, bump, came the Little Blue Truck to help the dump. Little Blue pushed with all his might. Mmm, now Blue and the dump were both stuck tight. "Howp, howp, howp," cried the Little Blue Truck. "Beep, beep, beep, I'm stuck, I'm stuck." Everybody heard that beep, beep, beep. The cow came running with the pig and the sheep. Up at a gallop ran the big brown horse. Goat jumped over the fence, of course. The hen came flapping with the chick and the duck, and everybody pushed the Little Blue Truck. Head to head and rump to rump, they all pushed Blue, who pushed the dump. They couldn't quite budge that heavy load, then who hopped up, but the big green toad. All together, one, two, three! The last push and the trucks were free. "Thanks Little Brother," said the dump to Blue. "You helped me and they helped you." Now I see a lot depends on a helping hand from a few good friends. "Beep," said Blue, "who wants a ride?" Everybody scrambled to jump inside. "Link, quack, ba-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah."
