The new Tripp Wheeler Adventures by Linda Hagopian and Debbie Ruane Sparks takes early readers on an adventure with a truck driver. The Red, White and Blue Party is the first book in the Tripp Wheeler Adventures series. You can follow along with Tripp and his dog, Detour, as they work together to avoid an ice cream meltdown. With pictures and storyline that shows the life of a truck driver, there is also a very diverse set of characters to fully display the diversity in the trucking industry. It is an eye-opener for children to understand why people who drive big trucks and work in the industry are important.
