Praise

“The Adventures of Nonna and the Little Red Truck in the Summertime is an absolute treasure! Each day’s adventures beckon the reader with descriptions and illustrations of amazing nature, engaging places, and warm and welcoming people and animals. It’s truly been shown that “talking is teaching”, and the learning guides in the back of the book even further expand its ability to awaken curiosity and inspire conversation. What a delight!”
—Valerie White, Youth Services, Canton Free Library, Canton, NY

“Kathy Brandon's book is delightful and certain to be shared across generations. It celebrates the rhythms of tradition, the joy of relationship, and the discovery of community. The anticipation of each new day is seen through the eyes of child and grandparent alike. What a wonderful tool this book could be for families, or those who work with young children. The possibilities are endless, and I do hope more adventures await us with each season.”
—Melinda Izzo, Operations Manager, Orion Communities, STRM/Literacy Program

“The Adventures of Nonna and the Little Red Truck in Summertime provides a language rich experience that makes it easy for children to connect their own experiences to the text. It offers many ways for parents and teachers to engage children with concepts of time, describing, 'wh'-questions, predictions, and more!”
