My 3 year absolutely LOVES this book!
And I can’t get over how I’d just grabbed “The Trucks are Stuck” (originally published as Preschool to the Rescue
While I’d browsed through the bookshelves, Hubby read it with him once in the library but little did I know that he was hooked to the book!
Thus, when he kept asking for the “mud book” while Hubby was napping, I didn’t know which book he was referring to 
Silly Mummy, right?
This cute story starts off with a
“sleepy, creepy, deeper-than-you-think mud puddle”
and how various vehicles i.e. a pizza van, a police car, a fire engine, a tow truck and a backhoe gets stuck in the mud puddle one after another.
Finally, a group of preschoolers run out to rescue the stuck trucks and that’s when you (the adult) realize the twist in the story 
The preschoolers get each of the truck out of the mud in creative, different ways and have a good time in the end making mud pies, mud cookies, mud muffins and mud pizzas.
I will have very, very fond memories of this book because it’s the FIRST book my toddler has attempted to “read”. He’d yell:
“Police car to the rescue!” (and etc)
at the appropriate parts and simply loves reading this book again and again and again.
If your child loves trucks or playing in the mud, you MUST get this book for him/her. It’s a really, really fun book to read out loud
